Additional Information
Mostly a Shore Dump that can offer a heavy close out on high tide. Just paddle out from the beach. Somtimes there is a backline that closes out as well.
Atmosphere
Other than South Beach, this is the worst wave in Durban. Fun for body surfing in the closeout Shorey though.
General
Give it a miss. If you live in the area you may get lucky and get it good!
