In Struisbaai is a flat water and a wave spot. The first one is found near the Harbour and in order to get here, you’d have to set up the kite at Main Beach and do an upwind. It’s worthwile the hassle as the flat water conditions here are amazing. This spot works well with both SE and SW winds

Main Beach is a large beach forming a bay where waves set up nicely both right and left with SE and SW winds. The SW can be gusty at times, therefore the more we move to the west point of the bay, the cleaner it’ll be.

This spot is the jewel of South Africa for kitesurfing. A sand bank at a rivermouth shapes a perfect large flat water lagoon where conditions are ideal for freestyle and for beginners. In the open sea, conditions are also good for beginners, although the lagoon is much more suitable. The spot in itself is beautiful and it’s completely worthwile the 300km drive from Cape Town in order to spend at least a couple of days here. You must be cautious when leaving your stuff at the beach as with high tide the water level can practically cover most of the beach and you can loose everything!
