Surfing Durban South Africa. Ricky Basnett Travis Logie, Shane Thorne, Paul Canning.

Durban, Kwa-Zulu Natal has the largest population of surfers in the country. Peppered with surf shops and spots, it's an ideal city surfing locale. There are lots of spots, from mellow beach breaks to grindingly hollow reef and beach breaks. The nightlife hums. The beach culture is a powerful force along the promenade, with the bronzed surf crew hanging out at trendy hangouts bedecked in the latest, slick fashions.

In terms of the surf, the Bluff, a large headland at the south end of the harbour, blocks off the swell from the beachfront. If a 6' south swell is running, then the spots along the southern Bluff will be firing but New Pier might only be 3' and South Beach, tucked on the inside, flat. Those spots in the southern corner of the beachfront - such as Vetchies Reef and Addingtons - are usually flat in southern swells, but work in Easterly swells. South swells refract around the bluff, and begin breaking only from South Beach, the waves getting bigger as you head north, past the Wedge, New Pier, North Pier, Bay Pier and Snake Park.

When easterly cyclone swells pull through, the Durban basin fills up with swell, turning on spots like the Diary Bowl, a famously powerful sandbar wedge between North Pier and New Pier.
