In the Northern part of the Western Cape. Drive up to Vredendal, then to Lutzville close to Papendorp. Cross the Olifants river and drive to the coast and north untill you find a small bay with a rocky island close to it.
South Africa's shark island look-alike. A heavy and dangerous wave breaking over a shallow reef. Loads of kelp. Impossible on low tide. Needs a 5/6 foot swell to start breaking properly, anything smaller does not form well. Looks very simular to the infamous shark island in Oz, also breaks predominantly right with the odd left. HEAVY AS HELL. Bring a helmat. Anything over 8 foot is asking for kak.
Overview
Atmosphere
Sharks are a real threat so if you're comming out this way, bring a friend.
General
Could be on private property, not sure. Dont think anyone has surfed here. If youre passing and you've got the time come check it out. Cold and scary. TAKE CAUTION!
Leker's a Leper!
Since Lekker thinks he's such a local here, the reason is because he's head of the nearby Leper colony, why worry about any of their false shark rumours? Obviously the REAL HAZARD would be catching that chronically CONTAGIOUS skin disease LEPROSY from OUTCAST LOCALS like this 1!
