Additional Information
Another Long lefthand point break. Pretty straight forward wave, simular to Cape Cross but abit shorter. Slow peeling and soft wave that gets longer with bigger swell. Can get hollow on low tides.
Atmosphere
in the middle of nowhere. Private property so make sure you watch for gaurds patrolling. We got in trouble when caught with one guy once but gave him a bottle of brandy, then he left us alone..
General
Beautiful scenery. Isolated, Looooong waves. Gets classic.

The reality is that U NEED 2 TRY GOING SOUTH JO-HOE! - IF ACCESS IS IMPOSSIBLE THEN THAT MEANS ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE NO MATTER WHAT! SO IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'VE GOT ROYAL BLOOD OR DIAMONDS IN YOUR FAMILY TREE; ACCESS WOULD STILL BE IMPOSSIBLE 4 U EVEN IF U COULD SURF! So if can indeed surf Mr.'Bodie Saffa-jozo' then head south to the public beaches of Namibia & prepare to get beat-down for lying like a rug Jo-bozo!!
