Cape Town is one of the coolest cities on this small planet, to make it even better, it has great surfing. Expect cold water, especially in summer when the antarctic currents bursh past. Swell has an uninterupted line all the way from Cape Horn - big powerful waves on offer! Alternatively swing round to the False Bay side to enjoy the tropical (!) waters of the indian ocean - OK, not exactly tropical but several degrees warmer. Winter months (June - August) are best with the most swell being pushed in by huge storms between Cape Town and the antarctic but generally South Africa is one of the worlds most surf spoiled countries, which means there is surf all year round, depending where you are. Happy surfing bru!
