The magnificent Sunset Wave.
Sunset Beach does not often 'work' for the surfers and many a day it is hard to believe that this is one of the very few Really Big wave sites in the world. When Sunset is firing, usually in summer when the South- East blows, it produces unbelievable waves. Riding these on a BIG day is only for the skilled and the brave!
Cape Town Surfing.
Although Sunset Reef is the most famous for its size the jagered Cape Peninsula coastline from Kommetjie to Cape Point and then along False Bay to Muizenburg always have an excellent wave to offer for surfers and bodyboarders. The shape of the Peninsula means that regardless of wind direction there is always a beach with an on-shore. Long Beach Kommetjie, Outer Kom, Misty Cliffs, Washing Machine, Dunes and The Hoek is all close by. Diaz Beach, Kalk Bay and Llandudno fill in the days that Kommetjie itself is not working.
