Description

Tamarin Bay - Mauritius Tamarin Bay features a left-breaking reef wave over a sandy bottom, ideal for experienced surfers. This spot works best at high tide during rising conditions, with optimal swell from the southwest and south. Access is easy, with public beach entry and less than a five-minute walk to the surf. Known for its stunning volcanic backdrop, Tamarin Bay has a reputation for localism, with the "white shorts" locals being protective of their waves. While it may not be as consistent as other global surf destinations, it offers unique sessions when conditions align. The vibe can be tense, so maintaining a low profile is advisable. Be mindful of hazards like urchins and coral, and respect the local surfers to ensure a friendly atmosphere in the lineup. Despite its challenges, Tamarin Bay remains a captivating spot for those seeking adventure in Mauritius.
