RIVER MOUTH OR LAGOON BEACH
This is the nearest spot to Cape Town, a short 10 minute drive from the city centre. There is a good sized beach here with a nice shallow area for the first 50 metres, good for the less experienced. The rising tide here tends to be smaller than at the more Northerly destinations so it is good for Beg / Int as well as those wanting to try some easy wave sailing
SUNSET BEACH
Sunset Beach is one of the main windsurf locations with a good rising tide building with the wind in the late afternoon. There are no general facilities for the non-kitesurfer here unless you are staying at our Sunset Beach hotels which is right on the spot.
DOLPHIN BEACH
Another popular Kitesurf area and a favourite teaching zone with a very large open beach area. The beach here is one of the most astounding and good for non-surfers, with the facilities of the Dolphin Beach hotel and Café one site.
LANGEBAAN
Langebaan is moreless one and a half hour drive from Cape Town up the coast. The wind here is often stronger than Cape Town area and offers super flat water condition which is perfect for freestyle junkies or beginners. There is a Windsurf and kitesurf school located here offering rental and instruction options. There are also many very good cafes and restaurants. This makes for an excellent day trip from Cape Town.
