Description

Penguins - South Africa Penguins features a fun left-hand reef break, reminiscent of a smaller version of Inner Pool in Mossel Bay. This fickle wave only breaks on significant southeast swells and is characterized by a rocky coral bottom. It works best at mid and high tide during rising tide conditions. Accessing Penguins is straightforward; simply search for the nearby penguin colony, and you'll find the wave within a five-minute walk. The spot is relatively uncrowded, with only a few surfers on weekdays and weekends. Be cautious of potential dangers such as urchins, sharp rocks, and sharks. When conditions align, Penguins offers a unique surfing experience amidst stunning natural surroundings.
