South Africa's coastline offers some of the most reliable surf conditions in the southern hemisphere, and the programmes on this page let you make the most of them. You will find options ranging from a week-long surf fitness experience in Jeffreys Bay to a ten-day Christmas and New Year surf camp on KwaZulu-Natal's South Coast. The Jeffreys Bay retreat is built around six surf lessons with ISA-trained instructors, running from complete beginner through to intermediate level, covering everything from paddling technique to reading waves and positioning. Accommodation is in a beachfront surf house, putting you steps from the water. The KwaZulu-Natal camp takes advantage of the consistent swell that arrives along the South Coast during the southern hemisphere summer, which is why it runs its seasonal packages in December and January. Umzumbe, where the camp is based, sits roughly ninety minutes south of Durban. These retreats suit solo travellers, friends and anyone wanting to combine time in the water with structured coaching. Whether you are catching your first whitewater wave or looking to improve your intermediate skills, there is a programme here to match. Prices start from 399 EUR for the seven-day Jeffreys Bay week.
