Overview

Kamers ("Chambers") is a reef break located between Big Bay and DerdeSteen on the Bloubergstrand/Melkbosstrand coast. This advanced wave spot offers fast and technical reef sections. The south-easterly Cape Doctor creates quality wave riding conditions. Kamers is less known than the neighboring spots but offers excellent waves for riders who know the reef. The spot gets its name from the "chambers" formed by the reef rocks.
