 Surf Spot Characteristics

 Additional Information

A classic righthand pointbreak tucked away in the Reserve, on the False Bay side. Befriend a local if you want to surf it. It is fiercely protected. Needs an enormous swell - a 15-20' South swell - to push into the swell window that protects False Bay from the brunt of the ocean. When it's working, the veterans venture from the woodwork, or should that be a woodie panel van? It's a difficult wave to master because it holds off in deep water, then suddenly jacks up on the outside of this point and races down the rocks into a small bay. Buffels only starts working at about 6', and can be inconsistent unless the swell is coming from a mega cyclonic system out to sea. But once you've caught a wave, you get a classic walling wave that runs for a good long time.
