Character

01

Le Souffleur is defined by exposed reef peaks with defined current channels over tropical reef with sand channels. The shape can change with swell angle, period and the active section, so the live score should always be paired with a visual check from shore.

Best setup

02

N–NE swell, s–sw offshore or light trade wind and mid to high · rising form the profile baseline. SWELLRADAR treats 0.6–2.2 m as a working range, not a guarantee of breaking-wave size.

Lineup read

03

Choose a peak that matches your experience and reassess it as tide and crowd change. Pay particular attention to shallow reef, defined current channels, trade-wind chop. Local signs and advice always take priority.
