Surfing

A long, forgiving beach break at Muizenberg, and a wetsuit you will be glad of.

Surf lessons at Surfers Corner, Muizenberg, run from shopfronts on the beachfront. Board and wetsuit are included, and the wave there is about as forgiving as a first surf gets.

Surfers Corner at Muizenberg is where most people in Cape Town first stand up on a board. The wave is a long, slow, sandy-bottomed beach break that reforms all the way to the beach, which is close to ideal for learning.

Lessons are run from shopfronts on the Muizenberg beachfront, a few minutes’ walk from the water. A board and a wetsuit come with the lesson, and the water is cold enough that the wetsuit is not optional.

Schools run year round and seven days a week. Lesson times move with the tide rather than the clock, and slots are booked rather than walked into, so arrive a few minutes early or the session gets shorter.
