Additional Surfing Infos
 very fical..but when breaks...very heavy but epic..kinda like maccaroni..but longer.....a mission and you gotta know when how and have swell...and medication..no running water or power on land..the country is wrecked...and thats by african standards
  Overview
  Atmosphere intense wave... very fast, but very fickle, as it needs prefect conditions. It turns on and off very quickly, as the tidal range is big and the wind effects it. The wind is like clockwork in this area. Every afternoon it picks up from 2pm from the SE, so you need to time it that you get there with a high tide in the afternoon. We had it perfect, with spring high at 4pm and low at about 11-ish, which is perfect time for Jellie-babies, which gets really good on a larger swell on spring low. You need good local knowledge.
  General when it breaks its good...when that is...trying to get right wind right tide and swell..hmmmm don't let anybody bullshit you you gotta have luck..one other kak surfspot near by jellybabies..names says it all soft and mushy

hola Real Traveller. always good to get the insiders view on the real goings on. Often contemplated Madagascar, but civil unrest, state of the infrastructure and a lot of poor hungry people didn't sit all that well. Things must have stabilized now the opportunists have moved in. There will always be that type of operator who doesn't really give a fook about who they're burning. All that aside how do the waves stack up with Mauritius, Tahiti or Indo. One organized land based camp in summatra a couple of years ago was a first off. Prefer the go it alone style, callin your own shots when you feel the urge. Is the place still safe, was thinking of doing a trip from Oz, taking in Reunion, Mauritius and SA. It is a huge island so we all think there's gotta be a couple of decent waterparks there. thanx for the guff.
