Tang surf guide

Tang is a small village that has a laid-back vibe, popular among locals. The area is surrounded by beautiful scenery and offers a decent surf experience, though you may find it isn’t exactly the best spot in the region. It’s just a short distance from the hammerhead peninsula, about 2 km away, where you can find some fun waves if you're willing to venture a bit further.

The surf in Tang works best with a south swell direction, but it can also handle southeast and south swells. Expect wave sizes of around 2 ft (0.6 meters) to be the most common, breaking over uneven reefs and sand. The waves here tend to be right-hand point breaks, making them suitable for intermediate surfers. For the best conditions, try to catch it when the wind is coming from the north and the tide is low, mid, or high.

While boat operators in the village may not be keen on taking surfers to the hammerhead peninsula, you can likely find some locals who know the area well enough to share good tips. Just be prepared to explore a bit and seek out the right spots to maximize your time in the water.
