About Le Moule
Le Moule is a highly exposed, powerful reef break situated on the north-eastern coast of Grande-Terre in Guadeloupe. The bathymetry is defined by a jagged, shallow coral reef that sits directly in the path of robust north-easterly wind swells generated by the Caribbean trade winds, as well as occasional long-period Atlantic groundswells. When these swells hit the reef ledge, they jack abruptly, creating fast, powerful right and left-hand peaks with heavy plunging lips. A southerly wind provides the ideal offshore conditions, grooming the frequently turbulent tropical sea state. Due to the extreme shallowness of the reef, the highly active water surface, and the rapid, top-to-bottom nature of the break, Le Moule is reserved exclusively for advanced surfers. It requires immediate, critical take-offs and exceptional physical agility to navigate the fast sections and avoid severe lacerations on the live coral bottom, functioning as the premier high-performance wave on the island.

How often is this page updated?
Current conditions refresh every 6 hours when the cron runs. Hourly data updates every 30 minutes. The 7-day forecast, luck factor, and packing notes are all pre-computed at the same time.
What is the luck factor?
We compare the 7-day forecast to the last 5 years of marine data for the same week at Le Moule. The delta tells you whether conditions are shaping up better, worse, or about the same as a typical late April.
How is 'best session' picked?
We score each day of the 7-day forecast using the same algorithm as the leaderboard, and highlight the highest scorer.
Where does the data come from?
Open-Meteo's Marine API (swell height, period, water temperature) and Weather API (wind and conditions).
Does the score capture local knowledge?
Honestly, no. Every break has tide windows, swell directions and reef contours that a global model cannot see. Treat the score as a starting point, then check a local cam.
