Magna Tubes is a reef spot located between Boneyards and Kitchen Windows in the Jeffreys Bay point break series. This reef produces quality right-handers during southwest swells. Like Supertubes, this is a spot reserved for experts due to the rocky reef and powerful waves. Kiting is tolerated when surfers are not present, but local rules must be strictly followed.
The spot works with SW swell on the reef. Quality right-hand waves. Kiting possible with SE but only when surfers are absent. Mid-high to high tide for the best waves and more depth over the reef. Do not ride at low tide — reef too shallow.
Open all year round
