Long Beach
Location: Cape Peninsula, Kommetjie
Type of break: Hollow Beach Break
Description:
Tucked away behind a point at Kommetjie, it's one of few places that can handle a southwesterly wind. Because it's so far around the corner - it actually faces North - the waves have to bend all the way around, almost doing a U-turn. The result, though, are clean lefthand peaks. These peaks break on the outside and run for about 20 - 40 metres before finishing off in a shorebreak closeout. A very rideable wave that's perfect for testing maneouvers. A lot of contests are held here. ****
