Quoin Point

Quoin Point is a surf spot located in Garden Route, South Africa, near the town of Bredasdorp and part of the Danger Point Peninsula. The spot sits within the Quoin Point Nature Reserve, a remote area with rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, and rocky shorelines. Access to the surf spot requires a 4×4 vehicle for the last stretch of road. The bottom is a mix of rocks and sand, and the wave length ranges from 50 to 150 meters. The surf spot provides right waves. The best conditions are usually found during winter months from June to August, when the swell can get big and the waves become more powerful. The inside section of the wave is more mellow, but it can also get heavy, while the outside section is known for being challenging and breaking close to rocks. There are strong rips and undertow, and the area is known for sharks, so caution is needed. The spot is considered world classic quality and is best suited for intermediate and pro surfers. The crowd is usually empty, but when it gets busy, respect the locals and always check the surf etiquette. There are no hospitals nearby, so timing and commitment are important, and mistakes can be dangerous. Check your skills before paddling out, be sure that the spot and conditions match your level. The area is remote, with a few bungalows available for rent nearby, and is part of a protected nature reserve, so respect the environment and avoid littering or making fires.
