Description

3de Steen - Near Melkbosstrand 3de Steen features a powerful beach break with both right and left waves, characterized by a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. This spot is best during winter swells and works well at low and mid tide, particularly with rising and falling tides. Located close to Cape Town, 3de Steen offers instant access, making it a convenient choice for surfers. When conditions align, expect chunky shorebreak barrels and fun rides, though it can get crowded on weekends. The atmosphere is excellent when the waves are good and fewer surfers are present. For those seeking less crowded options, nearby spots like 1st and 2nd Steen can be alternatives. Be cautious of rocks in the water, especially during powerful swells.
