Characteristics
  Loads of good waves to be had with some well known spots. Atleast 100 good spots along here. Best in winter months (June-August) when the swell is bigger and the crowds are fewer.

Readjustment of ratings
The ratings of the waves in this section are grossly overrated and whoever posted them has a serious case of ego-centric , pure South Afrcan ignorance/arrogance . Come on guys get real . Travel a bit ( NOT to the UK ) out of the little area into which you have corraled yourself and I am sure you will rationalise that 5 of the top surfing spots in the world are not around PE .Its easy to be misled by the pure stoke though and those waves are awesome on their day . But aren't they all . regards and salutations the granted

Avolanche needs to be rated better
Guys ,I think this whole Winter we have had limpwristed el NinoType waves ....but Avolanche has had some classic sessions compared to the other spots . Swell direction has a massive impact here so I reckon it did just that for Avo's .Oh to the guy that got cheese grated on the shelf other day ...shit it was funny ....come get the rest of your suit off the rock bud !Indy B
