Updated daily

The photograph of Long Beach in Kommetjie is taken between 6am and 8am and updated by 9am. The photographer waits for a set to indicate the ambient swell in the ocean. Bear in mind that west to SW swell must refract around many reefs - Long Beach will be considerably smaller than the open ocean swell.

Quoting Celeste:

I got owned by these waves man.. OWNED!!
Insane setting, just f'n love it.

I paddled out yesterday and couldn't understand why I was struggling so much, felt totally unfit. Then got to the back and saw I was hauling a big chunk of seaweed that had wrapped around my leash.... felt pretty stupid!

Sucks they censor some of the comments i find great entertainment in watching small little minds get upset at such small trivial things, especially on the internet in the comfort of their own home they let their mind slip an obsess upon the trivial. What happened to the good ol days when everyone was just so stocked to be alive, guess we need a war or something so we can all just appreciate what we have here in south africa maybe then our minds would not drift to such trivial matters that children should rather be quarreling about.

I had a point but im suuuuuuuper high

I can't agree more. Petty people with their small petty ego's trying to win it out over the web... Just shut up and surf. No one really cares what you have to say unless its worth while. South Africa needs unity, not division. Surfers are the fore runners for change in the world because of the privelage we have to be so intimately involved with the ocean, the life giver of the planet. We dont watch TV to make us happy, we watch weather patterns and swell charts. Come now. Lets just get along and enjoy this crazy gift called life.

Hi everybody. The photographer was uploading images faithfully, but did not notice that his new camera software used a JPG extension and not the jpg as usual. The upload program I wrote did not have a check in for this, so it uploaded the image, but to the wrong filename explaining why the cam applet was showing old images. I made some changes to this script to fix this and it´s all sorted now. Thanks for your patience. Catch a wave for me. I am landlocked in Vryheid for the next couple of weeks.
