Surfing the Skeleton coast

Country forums / Africa / Namibia

Hey guys,

My buddy and I are touring thru southern Africa and the skeleton coast is going to be our first look at the ocean. We are going to be wanting to dive straight in there but I figured I would ask about any major dangers that come with the location. We have surfed costa and cape town before but we could tap local knowledge about good spots to go there. Most of our time will be around swakopmund and maybe down to ludriz.

Anyone who has been on a board any where in namibia , your impute would be great

Thanks a lot guys

impute???

All I know is that the water is icy cold...the Benguella current comes up from the south (Antarctic) and runs northward along the Namibian coast.
