Located in Kwazulu Nata – South, South Africa, Strand is a fun stretch of beach break that offers up some peaky barrels. The waves here require a bit of know-how to surf and break for up to 50 meters over a rock and sand bottom. This beach is also used as a boat launching site, so take care.
What are the best surf conditions for Strand?
Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard if smaller and a shortboard or a step-up as the swell increases. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is somewhat consistent (5/10) and will get busy at peak times (5/10). The best winds are from the Northwest. The best swells are from the South and Southwest. Works on a mid to high tide.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini in the summers when temps rise to 27. In the winter wear the same as temperatures only drop to 22. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
