Heaven Access |
| |
Befriend a local to take you there as a special guest. Otherwise you won't find it. When a raging 15-20' storm swell is pummelling the Cape peninsula just before or after a cold front has passed, Cape Town surfers say "Let's go to Heaven". |

Additional Surfing Infos |
| | This small rock bottomed reef/point will be in the 6'+ range. A kelpy foamy cauldron of Atlantic juice, Heaven throws up a thick-lipped wall for about 80 metres, with a stomach-churning bowl section halfway down. Not for the faint hearted. Best in glassy conditions or light NE berg winds. Can't handle strong wind, but handles light Westerly, or even SW or S, as long as it's light.
