When it comes to surfing in South Africa, there's only one place to be - J'Bay baby! Perfect your shaka skills, courtesy of Wavecrest Surf School.

The ultimate surfing destination on the South African coastline, Wavecrest Surf School has been at the heart of the SA shaka scene since 2005 - celebrating an endless summer lifestyle on the shores of J-Bay!

Run and operated by a team of shoreline locals with a strong connection to the area's surfing heritage, Wavecrest Surf School combines the authentic J Bay experience with a range of lessons that make paddling in and catching your first wave truly epic. Situated on Jeffreys Bay's main beachfront near many restaurants and good chilling spots, the atmosphere is alive with the same hippy culture that attracted the first surf nomads back in the 60s!

J'Bay is known as home to the best waves in the world, where once a year the Billabong Pro Contest is held in July, as part of the World Surfing Tour (ASP). The longest, most perfect righthand pointbreak on the planet can be found right offshore. Consisting of no less than 10 different sections including Kitchen Windows, Magnatubes, Boneyards, Supertubes, Impossibles, Salad Bowls, Coins, Tubes, The Point and finally Albatross, but it's not all about big waves and barrels, the main beach or dolphin beach is ideal for beginner surfing. There are many board shapers here and it is a great place to have a board made personally for you. Visit these guys and see what they do - it's an interesting way to spend the day when the ocean is flat.

Surfing lessons are professionally set up to teach you all you need to know to get you on your way. It's an unforgettable experience with guaranteed fun... and where better to learn to surf than the world-renowned Jeffreys Bay!
