Green Point - KZN SA surf guide

Green Point is a surf spot located next to the Clansthal lighthouse in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It's a point break known for its right-hand waves. This spot isn't overly consistent, as it relies on the right sand build-up, which can vary. It's best suited for surfers looking for a change of scene with some decent waves when the conditions align.

For the best surf, you’ll want to hit Green Point during medium S swells. The optimal swell direction is from the South, but it can also handle swells from the Southeast and Southwest. The waves typically range from 2ft (about 0.6 meters) and can break over an uneven reef or sand, creating a mix of hollow and slopey walls. The best conditions occur with a light west wind and the tide can be low, mid, or high. This spot is best suited for intermediate surfers looking to challenge their skills.

Keep an eye on the swell sizes, as Green Point does its best work when the swell is around 2ft (0.6 meters). It's also worth noting the preferred wind direction is from the west, which helps to clean up the waves. Be prepared for varying conditions, as the waves can change quickly with the tides and swell direction.
