Lefts and rights are equally good but watch out for the shorebreak. I’ve had a few unfortunate incidences here. It works well in most swell sizes and south easterly and south westerly winds. Drive towards Kommetjie and turn right, opposite the school. |

Long Beach offers sufficient parking and a reasonable toilet block. Kommetjie village is a quaint, alternative little place. Check out the Green Room coffee shop on the Main Road to Scarborough, famous for its healthy smoothie and fruit juice range. Next door is a surf shop if you need wax. For sundowners park your car and walk up Slangkop to the white cross thats overlooking the bay. Its stunning up there. |

This is not the place to go to on the weekend – the crowds can be
horrific. But get it on an uncrowded day during the week and it can be a
wonderful break. Some of the groms you see in the water are potential future prosurfers and are home schooled by their mums. |
 |
Long Beach deserves 4 stars because of its consistency and the fact that it works in a sw wind (most spots in Cape Town don’t). Its a quality wave with a relatively easy take off and a workable face. You can get barreled here, in the section called Krons, to the right of the main break – watch the groms on their bodyboards. |
