Heavy lefthander that breaks over a rocky outcrop and peels into the Laggon mouth.
There is actually a surf spot just inside the Knysna Heads, believe it or not. A small group of locals ride it quite often. With a solid swell running outside the cliffs, the sand bars here gladly accept fun and hollow 3'-4' waves but it has been surfed big. The fun is tempered with the knowledge that you have to paddle all the way across the channel to the other side, often when the tide is pushing in through the heads. Incidentally, the Knysna Heads are only one of two places in the world where vessels won't by insured by Lloyds shipping agents. This adds a bit more spice to a daring dash across the channel.
Good spot though rarely surfed cause of sharks. There have been attacks so watch out. Still, it cooks.
Good spot when theres medium to big clean swell 4-8foot. Has been known to get very good.
Hardly anyone ever surfs this wave, though dont always know why? It can get good when there is swell and fairly long. The right is better and it does get super hollow. It usually breaks off the reef, fades and then reforms on the pebble shorey which hurts. Doesnt get too big but surprises you often.
Buffeljags can seriously pump, especially in winter months. Its a pretty heavy beachbreak which works best on a clean ground swell, with little or no wind. Great barrels.
