 Informations supplémentaires

This break can really go off with an intmidating take-off in front of the rocks, then a high speed run into the bay, finishing as a 'standard' beach break. On smaller days the inside is a reform without connection to the point/reef

Atmosphère

Friendly and fun, but the usual rules apply, respect the locals (who rip) and you'll have a great time

Général

Really nice place, 'cause even if you want to avoid the gnarly point/reef you can have fun on the beach break. I surfed here with a pod of dolphins playing in the water around us. Despite this welcome presence, goes to prove that the shark nets only 'reduce the chances' of sharks getting in, and are not total barriers.....

Awesome break - I've been bodyboarding and surfing at St Mikes and I will always have the ut most respect for that break. It is the only wave that almost drowned me twice and I surfed my biggest wave Yet there a monster 5m face it was crazy but the greatest day ever

Surfing=dead? - is it just me or has sufing died on the south coast?!?
if this same piece of coastline was somewhere in Australia we would have produced a mick fanning by now...promising surfers emerge and just fade on this coast...bascially you have to move to Durban to experience competative Surfing. C'mon boys lets get on our boards stop bickering about local spots and SURF

Consistency - this wave is strangely really consistent, Ive lived on the coast all my life and if nothings working St Mikes produces the goods
great point break, respect the locals and enjoy.
