Meet Cape Town surfers →South Africa's surf city. Warm Indian Ocean, New Pier, and a surf heritage going back to the 1960s.
Meet Durban surfers →Jeffreys Bay, between Port Elizabeth and Cape Town on the Garden Route, is one of the most famous waves in the world. Supertubes — the main section — delivers fast, perfect rights that peel for several hundred meters on a good swell. The town has built its identity entirely around surfing, with a year-round community of locals, traveling pros, and surf industry workers who create one of the most concentrated surf cultures in the Southern Hemisphere. Cape Town offers a different experience — dramatic scenery, cold water, and a large urban surf community built around Muizenberg (a mellow learn-to-surf beach) and the more serious breaks of the Cape Peninsula. Durban on the east coast has warm water and an energetic scene shaped by the city's size and diversity.
