South Africa is one of those destinations that gets under your skin.
World-class waves, jaw-dropping landscapes, incredible culture — and a road trip format that means every week looks completely different from the last.
These aren’t just surf trips.
They’re the kind of adventures people talk about for years.
Peak Seaon: April–September
Beginner right through to experts
Huge range of styles
South Africa has everything you want from a surf trip — and a lot you didn’t know you needed.
The waves span the full range. Muizenberg’s long, forgiving rollers for beginners. The raw power of Durban’s Bluff for those ready to push harder. And J’Bay — Jeffreys Bay — one of the longest, most perfect right-hand point breaks on the planet and a fixture on the WSL World Tour. Surfing it, even once, is the kind of thing you don’t forget.
But it’s what happens between the sessions that makes a South Africa trip genuinely special. Table Mountain at sunrise. The world’s highest bungee jump. Game safari in search of the Big 5. Wine tasting on the Garden Route. Community projects with Waves For Change. A road trip that covers the length of a continent and stops at every good wave along the way.
Our South Africa programmes are run by some of the country’s most experienced surf coaches — several of them former professional surfers with national titles between them. Whatever your level, you’ll surf better at the end of the trip than the start. That’s a guarantee.
