Additional Information
This is one of the only true point breaks on the Kwa-Zulu natal coast. With a high quality south swell it can be world class. On normal swells it is still very good and offers some protection from strong SW winds. When the wind is NE - don't bother. There are very few true locals but it is close enough to Durban and Amamzimtoti that it can get crowded on weekends.
BEWARE - petty theft from cars is a problem in the area and there have been soem cases of armed robbery and car-jackings. Don't go alone!
Oh yeah - there are no nets and it can be a bit sharky, especially during the sardine runs.
