This is a very special space. I loved my stay here and the memory of it will stay with me until I die. When you come and stay with Shafiek, you’re inserting yourself into a large and busy surf family. The apartment is above Surfer’s Corner, right on the beach. There is a large rack of surfboards and wetsuits you can borrow. And surfing is the main topic of conversation here. It’s a busy space... almost like a surf commune. There is always someone around making coffee... waxing a board... or playing music. And in the evenings, you’ll sit with the family and have family dinner and conversation over tea. Please don’t be intimidated by this description. Shafiek and his family welcomed me into their family from the moment I crossed the threshold and I never felt like “just another strange guest in someone’s house.” Not even for a second. Muizenberg is a kinda paradise. When I return here I will of course be staying with my Muizenberg family. ;)
