Cemetery
Edit SpotAbout
I love it, it's where I learned to surf. That spot and Muizen.
Atmosphere:
If you can manage to get there before sunrise, and stay till after sunset, your african experience is made. IF YOU SEE ANY DARK SHAPES IN THE WATER, GET OUT.
Additional Info:
Park car in lot, but beware of a new breed of asshole that targets surfers cars. They know you are out in the water and it takes a while to get out. Take care at all beaches. Try to paddle out in front of the toilets (yes that building in the middle of the parking lot).
Location

Just east of Muizenberg. Drive from Sunrise Circle towards Strandfontein beach, it's about halfway between. Long stretch of parking lot, can't miss it. Smells a bit naff tho'.
