Supertubes, Jeffreys Bay
Supertubes
A world-class right-hand reef break with perfect winter tubes, located in a surf town packed with surf brands.
Jeffreys Bay lies about 75 km west of Gqeberha. Supertubes is widely regarded as one of the best right-hand point breaks in the world. In winter, Southern Ocean swells form perfect tubes hundreds of meters long, and the World Surf League holds the J-Bay Open here around July each year. Non-surfers can watch professional surfers from the wooden boardwalk beside the break. The town has surf schools, where beginners learn at the main beach, factory outlets for surf brands, and seafood restaurants. It is about one hour's drive via the N2 highway.
