Anse La Raie
Anse La Raie beach, located in the northeast of Mauritius near Cap Malheureux, is a quiet spot lined with filaos and fine sand. It is a favorite place for locals and riders for its protected lagoon and relaxed atmosphere.
The spot offers a varied water plan with a flat basin ideal for beginners and a large freeride area once out of the bay. There are fewer people compared to the spots in the southwest, making it a perfect choice for calm sessions.
Schools like Ion Club or Dreamteam are on-site for equipment and lessons, in a paradise-like setting with turquoise water.

Location
Detailed information
The spot is oriented facing east, with a main wind side-onshore from east or northeast that becomes side once out of the bay. The water entry is tricky due to rocks at the edge, you need to walk in the shallow water of the basin to take off, often with the wind at your back at the start.
The navigation area is divided into three: a flat basin closed by rocks perfect for learning, freestyle, or foiling, very shallow with foot everywhere; then a huge freeride area in the lagoon once the rocks are passed, with flat water or slight chop and gigantic space; finally, moderate waves on the outer reef about 2 km away, side but with no rescue possible outside the lagoon.
The take-off area is a small grassy space, caution with nearby trees. Easy rigging on grass, but booties are mandatory for shells and rocks. The wind is reinforced by the trade winds, constant in season.
