Additional Information
Atmosphere
classic view of table mountain and table bay while sitting in the lineup. the locals are fairly friendly, but DON'T go out there hassling and dropping in on anyone, cause they will sort you out
General
generally decent waves all year round. not world class but still fun on most occasions

winter break - This spot is definitely a winter break, fires on those perfectly still and sunny winter days, only 15 minutes from CBD after work. Gets super kak when the south easter blows. One of the less crowded spots.

Good wave when it cooks!!! - This spot cooks on an incoming tide , no wind or light north east more full that low tide! Check out the banks up and down the coast and you could hook onto some awesome waves for the tide duration!!!
