About the beach

Seal Point

The right over rock by the Cape St Francis lighthouse. For surfers who already ride: rocks, sea urchins and a ledge that shows mid-wave at low tide.

Spot guide

Surfing Seal Point

Seal Point is a surf beach in Cape St Francis / East London, South Africa.

What level is Seal Point for?

Seal Point 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 Seal Point?

The bottom is rock. It calls for extra care and local knowledge, especially at low tide.

When does Seal Point work best?

Seal Point works with the right mix of swell and wind on the day.
