Additional Information

A beautiful little white-washed fishing village with four spots in the area. Ask a local to show you around. Different types of waves but ofcourse all do need experience with size. On super low you are eating reef. Good hollow sections, usually at the takeoffs.

Atmosphere

Good on a 4-6 foot swell or go to Struisbaai.
