Scottburgh Point surf guide

Scottburgh Point is a surf spot located along the South Coast of South Africa. It’s known for being one of the more consistent waves in the area. The wave breaks in front of the pool over a mussel-infested reef, which can be a bit tricky. It then rolls into the variable river mouth sandbanks, making it a mixed bag depending on the conditions. Crowds can gather here, especially on good days, so be prepared to share the lineup.

The surf at Scottburgh Point works best with a swell coming from the South. It also picks up swells from the SouthEast and SouthWest, and is capable of handling swell sizes as small as 2ft (about 0.6 meters). The wave typically breaks right over a combination of rock ledges and sand. It’s suitable for intermediate surfers, so if you're not quite ready for more challenging spots, this is a good place to work on your skills. The best wind direction for surfing here is from the West, and it can be surfed at low, mid, or high tide.

Given its location, Scottburgh Point offers a range of conditions that can change quickly, especially with the tide and swell. Make sure to be respectful to the local surfers when you’re out there, as they'll appreciate it and the vibe will be better for everyone. Overall, it’s a spot that can vary from average to pretty good, depending on the conditions that day.
