Madiba's Right
Edit SpotAbout
Not a single surfer in sight just with Table mountain infront of you when youre looking back at Capetown.
Atmosphere:
If you have your board and youre here check it out. Try hiding your board when going over. Theres a campsite on the island, you might have to walk everywhere.
Additional Info:
Sometimes pretty long little righthander that breaks into a small rocky bay. Not as good as Madiba's left but hollow. It breaks off a small outcrop of rocks so lowtide theres thick bulkelp sticking out everywhere, i think tricky for standups.
