Martinique Surf Guide
A consistent, shapely, wide-open and punchy beachbreak about 90 minutes north of Lawrencetown, near Musquodoboit Harbor. A large bay with sandbars galore - the south end has a small reef/pointbreak set up - it gets quite good, and gets a lot of swell. This is the place to go if the surf is small elsewhere.
