really nice atmostphere... awesome wave awesome vibe
Atmosphere:
its a really cool2 spot not many locals.... can get really nice.. a very powerfull wave tho.... .dont d.rop in on people or ill cum and hit u myself....... d.ropping in should.nt be a problem tho cos there are many peaks
Additional Info:
Find an uncrowded peak when it works, don't crowd one or you're gonna have a bad time.
Be prepped for a hectic paddle out initially if it's big. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT....paddling out if you are not psyhsically fit and a decent duck diver on bigger days - you will endanger others and possibly drown.

drive to milnerton then take the turnoff towards the protea hotel you should see a sign that says dolphin beach then keep going down till u get past the circle,best spot is infront of a seafood place called Jimmy's.
With the shipwreck the sand has shifted quite a bit and created a nice wave just opposite the traffic circle and also 50 meters down Otto Du Plessis. Continue down until opposite Doodles for another break
