Kosi Bay
Kosi Bay is a remote northern KZN surf classic, where the mouth-and-reef setup sits inside the iSimangaliso wetland landscape and far from the usual busy surf strip. It pairs warm water and sparse lineups with a protected reserve setting, so the session feels as much about place as it does about the wave.
