Beautiful waves, clean and flat in between. Also the best spot in Cape Town for freestyle, without any doubt, with super smooth water at low tide. Winter time offers clear beaches while summer time offers packed beach with users. Muizenberg is the windiest kitesurfing spot in Cape Town. Wind strength is much more consistent throughout the day than in any other place. A typical kitesurfing summers day in Muizenberg has about 15-18 knots wind in the morning, picking up progressively to 25-30 knots in the afternoon. Due to a unique thermal effect and to its proximity to the Cape of Good Hope, a moderate on-shore wind blows into Muizenberg on afternoons even forecasted with no wind. A real paradise for kitesurfers. The Indian ocean offers a warm all round temperature throughout the year. Water: Shallow, Flat, Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: School, Shop, Repair, Rental, Rescue, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
