Description

Umzumbe - South Coast, KwaZulu-Natal Umzumbe features a right-hand beach break with a sandy bottom mixed with rocky areas, offering hollow and powerful waves. The spot is well-protected from heavy winds, making it a reliable choice when other breaks are blown out. It works best at low and mid tide during rising and falling tides. Located 10 minutes past Hibberdene, Umzumbe is known for its beautiful scenery and relaxed atmosphere. While it can attract a decent crowd during optimal surf conditions, it generally remains uncrowded, especially on weekdays. The varying sandbanks can lead to changing conditions, so checking the surf beforehand is advisable. Respecting the locals is essential for a smooth experience, and finding a local to guard your car is recommended. Overall, Umzumbe offers a unique surfing experience in a picturesque setting, making it worth a visit for surfers of all levels.
