An e-foil is a surfboard with an electric motor and a hydrofoil wing underneath: once you're up to speed, the board lifts out of the water and you glide silently above the surface. OceanFly, a Mauritian company founded in 2024, offers demo rides and lessons at Tamarin beach (and at Grand Baie).

Most people stand up within the first session. Calm morning water is best.
