The Wave

The spot sits right by the Kommetjie lighthouse, so the useful call is a clean offshore window with low to mid tide and a falling push.

Check the live tide windows in the app to time your session perfectly.

West swell is what wakes the reef up, rocks and urchins are part of the setup, and the lineup is usually quiet.

Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
