Description
Humewood - Port Elizabeth
Humewood features a right-breaking wave over a sandy bottom, characterized as hollow and fast. This breakwater/jetty setup works at all tides, particularly during a rising tide. Access is straightforward, with instant access (<5 min) from parking above the road near six concrete pillars along Marine Drive.
Located along Humewood Beach, this spot attracts both surfers and bodyboarders, offering a laid-back atmosphere. While it may not always deliver consistent waves, it can provide fun sessions when conditions align, especially with west or southwest swells. The beach is generally uncrowded during the week, but expect a few local surfers on weekends. Be mindful of man-made dangers like buoys, and respect the lifeguards on duty. With the right mindset and conditions, Humewood can be an enjoyable surf destination.
