About the beach

Muizenberg

A long sandy beach on False Bay, with gentle waves that break slowly. It is where many people learn in Cape Town, and the water is less cold than on the Atlantic side.

Spot guide

Surfing Muizenberg

Muizenberg is a surf beach in Cidade do Cabo, South Africa.

What level is Muizenberg for?

Muizenberg has no fixed level, and that is the question Surf Booking answers every day: the same sea suits a beginner and does not suit an advanced surfer, or the other way round. On this page the sea at this beach is read hour by hour and by level — beginner, intermediate and advanced — for the next 7 days, and the verdict is this beach's, not the region's.

What is the bottom like at Muizenberg?

The bottom is sand. It is the most forgiving bottom for learning and for wipeouts, though the sandbanks shift through the year.

When does Muizenberg work best?

Muizenberg works with the right mix of swell and wind on the day. The beach faces Southeast.
