Located in Kwazulu Natal – South, South Africa, Southbroom is an excellent right-handed sand point that offers up some fast and fun walls when the conditions line up. The waves here require some skill to surf and break for up to 300 meters over a rock and sand bottom. Easy access off the rocks at the top of the point.
