Description

Baileys Cottage - Muizenberg, Cape Town Baileys Cottage features a short, hollow right-hander that breaks over a shallow reef, with a second reef offering a boulder takeoff leading to a hollow barrel section. It works best with swells of 0.9 meters or more and northwest winds, primarily at mid tide during rising and falling tides. The wave is known for its powerful barrels, making it a sought-after spot despite only working about 20 times a year. Located on the right-hand side of Muizenberg Corner, Baileys Cottage is part of a vibrant surf scene in Cape Town, attracting surfers of all skill levels. While the area is known for its chill vibe and long sandy beach, Baileys offers a unique challenge with its hollow barrels. The surrounding spots cater to beginners, making Muizenberg a versatile destination for surfers. However, be cautious of potential dangers like urchins, rocks, and sharks while enjoying the waves.
