Madagascar Surf Camp - Befasy, Toliara. Madagascar
INTRODUCTION
Madagascar Surf Resort is in the remote South West of Madagascar…one of the last remaining surfing frontiers. The Lodge is located at the north end of the remote beach village of Befasy, a few hours boat ride from the southern port of Toliara, or “City of the Sun”. The surf lodge offers direct access to a private beach and a variety of perfect waves on the outer reef to suit abilities from improvers to elite athletes, just 5 minutes by our boat.
We have a large fully staffed communal restaurant / bar / chill out area perched on top of a hill providing breathtaking 360 degree views of the beach, the bush and the multiple surf line ups breaking on the outer reef.
The lodge accommodates both surfers and non surfers, and can be also a perfect gateway for families and couples. For optimum experience, we run a policy of maximum 8 surfers at any time. We are open from May till September.
