Cap Malheureux
Cap Malheureux, at the very northern tip of Mauritius, offers a flat-water lagoon that sources single out as experienced-riders-only because of a shallow, rocky bottom at low tide and heavy small-boat traffic (this is a working fishing village). North coast wind is noted as less consistent than the south.
