is good but not regular
Virage is a good spot for all level, good for learning in small days, and so nice when big and offshore, so everybody can have some fun on this spot. I recommand it!!!

Virage is a pretty good wave
You just don't see it in a good season. I know that wave and many pro like Didier peter began there. It's a beach brake in summer and a rocky point in the cold season. It's just about the wind, if it's off, you could be not recognize it. For me this wave is exceptionel

surf shop near virage
there is a small surf shop near this beach, if you walk out of the beach towards the paved road and look to the left you will see a dirt road, walk (drive) down the road approximately 2km and you will see it, it has a surfboard hanging on the wall...kinda pricey but if you can afford to take surfboards to africa you can probably deal...they rent too
