More about Limbe Island surfspot
Shallow fast left, with steep performance sections and an end bowl. When small watch our for live fire coral poking through the wave face.
Take a short boat ride from the mainland.
Bas Limbe is a fast growing town, and surfers can easily find a boat from the fishing village just outside the main town to access the small island hosting the left. Limbe island is where, in 2006, John Callahan shot the cover image used on Haiti: The Bradt Travel Guide (2013) of Jamaican surfer Icah Wilmot stepping of the boat, surfboard under arm. It feels fitting that Haiti’s first lone travel guide (usually she shares with neighbouring Dominican Republic) has a surf exploration image on the cover. The country remains a promised land for adventurous surfers.
