Surf: Only 11km from Fort Dauphin is Vinanibe (a.k.a. Ambinanibe or Venom Bay). This is THE most powerful beach-break of the region. Likened to Hossegor in France, this super shallow, very fast tube can be up to 300m long on a good day. Perfect left and right peaks will satisfy even the most experienced surfer. Works consistently all year round with the northerly offshore winds. A killer wave which will make your trip, but not for the faint hearted or the inexperienced. Chill out afterward around a fire with fish bought from local fishermen. Environment: High consistency up around 8 and low friendly crowd around 3.
