Affenrucken point
Edit SpotAbout
Perfect. Unspoiled. One of the best waves i have ever surfed.
Atmosphere:
looong slow breaking but powerful lefthand pointbreak that can handle alot of swell. Takes a long drive over dunes from Affenrucken and a pretty long walk. No one around. Beautiful scenery with the namib desert infront of you.
Additional Info:
Welcome to the 5th of 6 perfect, long Lefthand pointbreaks on Namibia's mid coast. All these breaks are on diamond mining private property, so access is impossible. Lucky for us we have family that work here..sorry okes.. Good luck
