SURF
Just a short 5min walk away from the camp is Pumula Beach where the Injambili River meanders down to a rocky point, on which since 1935 rests the remains of the shipwrecked Nivonia, looking north towards the warm golden sun, a long white beach stretches between the lush green dune forest and clear blue sea.
Our coastline is full of small rocky bays, estuaries and long sandy beaches, excellent for surfing, snorkelling, fishing and diving. Most local beaches are protected by lifeguards and shark nets. We have a sub-tropical climate so its warm all year round, meaning many days of surfing in bikini’s or board shorts or a shorty for winter.
There are 7 surf spots within a 10min drive from the camp with a good variety of waves that work in different conditions, from point breaks to shallow sand bars, stretching out up to 150 meters from the shorebreak to backline. With the average summers swell size of 2-4 foot and 4-6 foot in winter. So, our surf instructors are always able to find a suitable, safe surfing environment to cater for your ability.
