Ansteys Beach is a kite spot in the Bluff area, south of Durban. This beach offers a more local, less touristy atmosphere than the Golden Mile. Warm tropical waters (22-26°C). The spot is known for its good waves and tidal pool reef. Suitable for intermediate to advanced riders depending on conditions.
The spot works in NE to SE winds. The Bluff offers some protection from south winds. Regular waves with reef sections. Tide influences conditions: at low tide, the reef is exposed. Best at mid rising tide.
Open all year round
