About this spot
Big Bay in Blouberg, Cape Town, has grown to one of the Cape Towns most iconic wave venues. The SE Cape Doctor drives 20 to 40 knots all summer, creating clean glassy left handers between rocky outcrops and flat water pockets perfect for freestyle. Bring a 4/3mm wetsuit as the cold Benguela Current keeps the Atlantic at 10 to 15°C year round.

Local tips
“Lots of places to eat, rentals, nice beach. Not the most punchie wave and needs some height, but a great overal spot for kiting, windsurf, and maybe best for foiling. ”
