Wingfoil School in Madagascar – Sakalava Bay | Ocean Lodge

Wingfoiling in Sakalava Bay, Madagascar

Wingfoiling in Madagascar is practised in outstanding natural conditions, and Sakalava Bay is now recognised as one of the best wingfoil spots in the country for safe learning and progression.

Located right on the waterfront, Ocean Lodge is one of the first wingfoil schools in Madagascar. The spot is directly in front of the lodge, allowing you to ride without transport or logistical constraints.

Thanks to a regular side-on wind, a wide and safe lagoon, and shallow sandy areas, wingfoiling here is accessible to beginners as well as intermediate riders. Lessons are progressive, using modern equipment and personalised coaching.

At Ocean Lodge, you step out of your bungalow, the equipment is ready…
and you ride immediately in front of the lodge, in one of the most beautiful watersports settings in Madagascar.
