We had an amazing trip to Storms Rivermouth on our Jeffrey’s Bay South Africa surfing holiday. We paid a visit to a very high bridge so that Dorian could try one of the highest bungee jumps in the world!! The 216m jump off the Bloukrans bridge is the highest commercial, natural, bungy jump in the world. We then took a boat ride up Storms river mouth, which everyone enjoyed.

Storms River is a tiny hamlet with shady lanes situated just north of Plettenberg Bay and on the edge of the Tsitsikamma Forest. This ancient indigenous forest is a world of giant trees, forest ferns, clear streams and brightly coloured birds. There is a short walk along the rocky shoreline to the wonderfully wobbly suspension bridge strung across the mouth of the river.

There are some great waves to be had in Jeffrey’s Bay South Africa at the amazing point breaks. We had a little rain this morning – the first of the trip. But it’s faired up now and has not spoilt the surf! We have said goodbye to a few guests today and we are now with our last two surfers – Andy and Dave. We have had an amazing time on this surfing holiday, and have loads more stories to tell! Next time it’s our trip to Storms Rivermouth!

Well yet another a fab day here in Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa today. Clear blue sky, hot and sunny, and not a breath of wind all morning. And the new swell was here when we got up this morning -perfect lines with waves runing down all the points. We all went down to point for the dawny and were greeted by perfect long walls peeling for 200 meters, with 6-10 ft faces, we all had the waves of our lives everyone had big smiles on their faces. We also had several pods of dolphins surfing with us. After brekky most of us that still had arms left for paddling had another amazing surf. And just a few minutes ago we spotted a whale just 200 meters out to sea! Wow! What a day!! And its only lunchtime!

We had an amazing time at Addo this week. As part of the Jeffrey’s Bay surfing holiday package, we take our group to the nearby Addo National Park, home to many wild animals you can get up close and personal with!

This time we had a really nice knowledgeable local to guide us through. We drove through the national park for about four hours, and saw lots of wild game. We saw zebra, elephant, warthogs, mongoose, ostriches, monkeys and many wild birds, and other large and small animals. The elephants were the most impressive; at one watering hole we saw two large male elephants having a chat a scratch and rub together. At another a herd of around twenty five elephants were visiting it, including a very small baby elephant, and some passed within a few meters of us. It was a day to remember!

If you like quiet surf breaks you’ll love surfing Jeffrey’s Bay, South Africa. Not only are there amazing surf breaks suitable for all abilities, but the breaks aren’t busy either.

One of the problems with surfing Fistral or Watergate Bay in the holidays, or any popular surf spot anywhere in the world, like Anchor Point in Morocco – they are just so busy! The shorelines are dotted with surf schools and out back you are fighting for waves with all the rest! Jeffrey’s Bay is different. We have had the breaks to ourselves most mornings. 4 has been a crowd! The locals are super-friendly too! It really is worth travelling that bit further to a spot like Jeffrey’s Bay to experience such great waves and uncrowded surf. So here we are, enjoying it!
