Description

Vleesbaai - South Africa Vleesbaai features a right-hand point break with a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks, known for its hollow and fast waves. This secret surf spot is located at latitude -34.29204111 and longitude 21.92605019. It primarily works at low tide, with optimal conditions arising from east swells and southwest winds. Access is private, requiring permission from local landowners. This ultra-fickle surf destination is renowned for its rarity, often delivering world-class barrels only once or twice a year. When conditions align perfectly, Vleesbaai can rival even the best spots in South Africa, but be prepared for a long wait. The area is known for its shark presence, adding an element of caution for surfers. The approach involves a 15-30 minute walk, and respect for local rules is crucial to maintain access. Expect minimal crowds during the week, but be aware that weekends may attract a few surfers.
