Description

Explores South Africa's top surfing destinations. This work examines the waves that are to be caught off South Africa's beaches, and what lies beyond and beneath: which beach offers the world's best ice cream, which is South Africa's most sought-after wave, and how geological phenomena affect the impact of waves on southern Africa's shoreline.
