Pin Rolland is a surf spot located near Pointe du Marégau. It's known for its left-hand waves that wrap around the point and roll down a rocky shelf. The wave has a decent wall, and you might catch the odd hollow section. It can handle swells from the southeast and southwest, making it a decent option for those looking to catch some rides. However, the consistency can be low, so don’t expect it to break all the time.
The best conditions here happen with swells around 1ft (0.3 meters), and it's ideal for intermediate surfers. You can expect the waves to form over sandy bottoms and generally work well when the swell comes from the southwest or southeast. The waves generally break left, which is great if that's your preferred direction. The wind from the northeast is usually your friend as it can line up the waves nicely and make them more enjoyable. You can surf Pin Rolland at low, mid, or high tide, giving you some flexibility on when to hit the water.
Pin Rolland can get crowded because when it does break, it attracts a lot of surfers. Locals can be protective of the spot, so be mindful of the lineup and respect the regulars. Even though it can be a nice surf when the conditions align, don't expect it to be epic every day. It's worth checking, but you might need to be patient.
