Description

Basically there are two main areas, to surf there is a large rock formation jutting out into the sea.On each side of the rocks there are peaks depending on the wind SW the leftside will cook,NE the right side will cook.On low tide there is a backline and durring the winter on the high there are at times some serious shorebreaks.The beach is not sectioned off by anything so if you have the time take a walk along the beach and there are some good sand banks all along the coast.Be carefull as the paddle can be hectic if you dont time it properly.If Amamzimtoti is flat take a drive to the neighbouring beaches as they can be good,pipeline,Warner Beach,Winkelspruit,Baggies.
