“Karamas is loaded with professional level surfers who dominate the break.Girls rip there also. I saw one Spanish or Brazilian lady charge like a champ and catching the kind of tubes I can only dream of. Wherever you are you are my hero!
Waves are fierce but manageable.dont hesitate or you will eat dirt.
Awesome barrels when you can sneak a few.
Crazy crap is the Japanese guys who have a local push them into the best waves. Never seen that in South Africa. Especially not for grown ass men.
I have no issues dropping in on these guys who pay for someone to find and push them into waves.
I understand they pay well but it just seems to lose some of the sole of the mission in working for that perfect wave.
I love the spot. World class surfers and I manage ride a few fast hollow waves. What more do you want??
Go there soon.
