Suiderstrand is a wild and isolated beach near Cape Agulhas, the southernmost point of the African continent, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Indian Ocean. The beach is exposed with powerful swell from the south. The setting is spectacular and rich in maritime history — many shipwrecks occurred on this coast. Advanced spot due to exposure and isolation.
Works in SE, E and SSE from October to March. Constant southern swell, waves 1 to 3m. Rideable at all tides. Exposed and powerful spot.
Open all year round

Access via dirt road from L'Agulhas. Parking on sand. Isolated area — bring everything you need.
SE and E are side-onshore to onshore on this south-facing coast. Strength 15-30 knots from October to March. Wind is very reliable in this area — the convergence of two oceans creates windy conditions. SSE also works.
