Description

Claptons - Aston Bay Claptons features a right-breaking reef wave with a powerful and hollow nature, ideal for experienced surfers. The spot is easily accessible, located just north of Supers in Jeffreys Bay, with instant access within 5 minutes on foot. It works best at mid and high tide during rising tide conditions, with optimal swell coming from the south and southeast. Known for its rarity, Claptons can deliver decent waves when conditions align, making it a hidden gem for those seeking a less crowded experience. While it typically remains empty during the week, weekends may see a few surfers. However, be cautious of the sharp rocks and potential shark presence. Timing is crucial here, as the spot can be fickle; when the east swell rolls in, it can offer quality waves for those willing to put in the effort.
