Looking for the latest South Coast surf report? This weekend, Scottburgh Beach is set to offer consistent swells with a south-east direction, creating clean and rideable waves. Winds will be light offshore, ensuring smooth conditions, especially in the mornings. Wave heights are expected to range between 3 to 5 feet, making it a great time for intermediate and advanced surfers to enjoy steady sets. The best surf windows will be around mid-morning and late afternoon, when tides align for optimal conditions. Stay tuned for updates on the South Coast surf report, and get ready for an exciting weekend of surfing in South Africa!
The South Coast region starts on the Bluff off Durban harbour and extends down to the start of the Wild Coast past Port Edward.
The Scottburgh surf report is updated hourly. The surf is consistent year round with the best swells being in the winter months between April and July. In the summer months the water is warm and only boardshorts are required. In winter either a spring suit or 2-3mm wetsuits will be fine. The water quality is generally very good except after summer heavy rains when the water can become brown and dirty.
There is a large variety of waves from beach breaks to point breaks. There are some world class spots such as Cave Rock, Scottburgh and Umzumbe.
