Tomate (Anse Belleville)

Tomate (Anse Belleville) is a black-sand North Coast surfing spot near Le Prêcheur. It’s described as a fairly exposed beach-and-reef break that can deliver reasonably consistent surf, with a long right-hand wave that ranges from easy and predictable to more challenging depending on the swell and current. The wave is most associated with winter conditions when northerly swell rolls in, typically working best with north to northwest/northeast swell directions. One description emphasizes a long and easy right over mixed sand and uneven reef, while another highlights a powerful, consistent right-hand break with reef characteristics and a fast, sometimes hollow section that then mellow out. Conditions can change notably with tide and swell size. Low tide can make the reef very shallow and more dangerous, and on larger days the spot may become heavy and challenging due to stronger current. Risks reported for this launch include submerged rocks/coral, sea urchins, and rip currents. The area is remote with no on-site lifeguards or facilities. Plan for limited parking/spot access and bring everything you need. For safety, check tide carefully, respect local lineup priority, and expect that wind conditions can be offshore and gusty because of wind shadowing from the surrounding terrain.
