Noordhoek Main Rights surf guide

Noordhoek Main Rights is a surf spot located in Noordhoek, known for its easy access thanks to a boat launching ramp. The deeper channel here makes it easier to paddle out without worrying too much about the urchins and mussels that can cover the rocks. This spot is quite popular, and it tends to attract a decent crowd, so expect some company in the water.

The waves here are generally right-hand breaks that work best with southwest swell directions, although southeast swells can also produce rideable conditions. Noordhoek Main Rights can handle swell sizes of around 3 feet (about 0.9 meters), and you'll find that it can offer some long, powerful rides with a few hollower sections along the way. The reef setup means you’ll want to be careful and know your stuff, as it's better suited for intermediate surfers. It's recommended to hit the surf during low, mid, or high tides, and the best wind direction is from the northwest for the cleanest waves.

Regular swells keep this spot consistent, but it can get blown out by the southwest winds, which can affect the overall surf quality. So, while it's a reliable option, be prepared for crowds on those better days.
