Located on the Wild Coast of South Africa, Coffee Bay is a fun beach break that offers up some fun peaks. The waves here are challenging to surf and break for up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a sand bottom. Can get very good in the summer.
What are the best surf conditions for Coffee Bay?
Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard if smaller and a shortboard then step up as the size picks up. This break is good for all levels of surfer. The surf here is consistent (7/10) and will generally be uncrowded (3/10). The best winds are from the Northwest. The best swells are from the East, South, and Southeast. Works on all tides.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini in summer when water temperatures rise to 26°C (78.8°F). In the winter, a spring suit might be best as temps drop to about 21°C (69.8°F). See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
