Additional Surfing Infos
 Hollow reef break, short but can get intense. When the swells up youll find an great shorey close to it aswell. The shorey usually closes out but you get some heavy, wide barrels. When all is flat - admire the bshman paintings in the cave or just get pissed on the beach.
  Overview
  Atmosphere West coast is lekker!
  General Rarely surfed spot dont know if anyones ever surfed here at all although the shorey might have seen the odd bodyboarder. Theres another wave that breaks close to where a group of seals hang out. Ive seen it small but perfect under big swell. Could be good if you dont mind the 500 odd seals up your ass!

Lekker soos n krekker
There are a few good spots situated in the Elands Bay area but a few of them our on private property i think so watch out for the farmer.. This spot needs a medium to large (6-10+) swell to start working well and a light offshore helps it. Shallow and heavy on big days..
