La Source
La Source sits just north of the famous Anchor Point, fed by fresh water springs that give the spot its name. The wave is a long, peeling right that can connect through multiple sections on bigger swells, offering rides of several hundred meters. When it links with Mysteries further down the point, you can surf nearly a kilometer. The water is notably colder here due to the springs, but the wave quality makes it worthwhile.
