sick a-frame reef break. private property.On RSA weapons manufacturing company.have fun but don't get caught.
There are three possible breaks here. A small righthander that peels along a rip channel in the left corner, a peak in the middle of the beach and a righthander off rocks in front of the car park. These spots depend on conditions. A clean West swell and light offshores turn on the car park. The beach is more consistent. Reforming righthanders (having wrapped around an outside point) swing back into the beach and break on a sandbar alongside a deeper channel running along the rocks of the inside point section. The rip keeps the sand out and on the sandbar. Gets perfect here, but a little inconsistent. For its size, its pretty juicy. Best at around 2-4'.
When Llandudno is closing out, Sandy Bay is a good option. This nudist colony is tucked away in the next bay and is a 20-minute walk from the car park. Mostly a short shorebreak wave, Sandy's can throw up perfect barrels on the shallow sand banks. It handles the southeaster well and can cope with a southerly if it's not too strong.
A heavy lefthand reefbreak. Gets very good. With huge pits that believe me you wanna come out of otherwise youre eating reef. Experienced surfers only, more better suited for bodyboarding i think.
The take-off here is over a very shallow rock. It's quite intimidating at first but as long as you take off slightly on the shoulder and gradualy work your way in, you'll be OK. The wave starts with an exciting drop, followed by a nice powerful bowl on which you can typically do a nice re-entry. After that it slowly begins to fade.The nice thing about this spot is that you seldom have to contend with whitewater, as there is a deep channel with a rip that helps you out to the break.To paddle out, you have two options. The first, for experts only, is to walk out on the rocks and jump in right at the break between sets. 'course if your timing is bad you'll get clobbered. The suggested method is to paddle out in a 6 foot gap in the rocks on the right hand side of the beach. There is a permanent rip there that sucks you out in no time.The trickier part of this spot is getting back to shore. Head straight for that 6 foot gap in the rocks - it's by far the easiest. On big days be really careful. A big whitewater can easily sweep you past the gap when you try and come in, leaving you with a dangerous swim in over some jagged, mussel-covered reef.
fast take off in to a good hollow barrel. be careful of the ledgey rock.
some where in between kalk bay and muizenberg. if you look hard enough you will find it.
Named after a guy called clazo who first surfed it way back in the 70's, originally from a small European country once known as Holbabia and is now a part of Russia.
fun left. kina like a lefthand version of innerpool in mosselbay. very fickle. only breaks on big SE swells
Heavy wave when on (needs big swell to turn on) but awsome when working. Breaks over granite and pebbles, hence the name. Often closes out but the rights are favoured. You will get some the best barrels here. Better suited for bodyboarders.
There are a number of waves in the Cape Point Nature Reserve that have some good surf. The surf spots here used to be secret until fairly recently. However, they all get pretty crowded these days, despite the harsh fees you have to pay at the gate. This is one of the waves here. It's a rocky right pointbreak. Works on southeast winds and moderate to large west to southwest swell. Best on the incoming tide.
The reefs have rights and lefts. Fairly easy paddle out to them and there are many. Long stretch of beach so plenty of beach breaks arond too. Works best on good solid groundswells. Can get sic barrels on the right days here and theres usually waves here.
