From Mzamba in the north to Haga Haga in the south , this amazing stretch of coastline offers every conceivable kind of wave. Lefts, rights, reefs, beachbreaks, sand points, bomboras a mile out to sea, tucked away bays and exposed points. Big waves, small waves, short tubes, long walls, the lot. In summer, more northerly and easterly swells make a host of lefthanders come to life. The many rivers in the area pump brown water into the ocean, at the same time producing long left beachbreaks that would have goofyfooters salivating.
Winter swells along the Wild Coast are epic.
You look out at the horizon and see these incredible lumps of ocean marching north. The points respond. Day after day of raw southern ocean power exploding on points never surfed before. Many spots are difficult to reach by land, you could travel for 4 hours to get to a point 10 kilometres away, but with a rubber duck and a four wheel drive it is possible to surf a virgin point every day of the week. Winding down to the coast in the heart of the Transkei, you're struck by the raw beauty of the area.
