The most fun you will have this winter anywhere!
The winter months of April through to early August on the KZN south coast cannot be beaten when it comes to consistent, warm sunshine filled days! The ocean at this time of year also just so happens to be spectacular! With the warm ocean and slightly colder land, offshore breezes generally blow every night. These offshore winds groom the ocean into a thing of beauty making it very inviting!
No better time than this to learn to surf! Great fun for small groups of friends, families, couples, corporate groups, well anyone and everyone actually!
We will introduce you to the amazing ocean at a very user friendly and safe beach, perfect for learning to surf. The beaches of Scottburgh are very famous and popular over the summer season but really deliver their best during the winter months. Experienced instructors will give you the basics and make you feel comfortable and confident to put your best foot forward and ride a wave! Believe us when we tell you it only takes ONE wave to get the bug and after that you can be assured endless hours of fun in the ocean!
Your place of residence during your stay with us will be in a beautiful coastal forest, teaming with bird life and a short 3 minute walk from a pristine conservancy beach. The wooden cabins are old school but neat and clean. Each has a braai and garden entertainment area making for a very relaxed and tranquil setting.
For the South African winter months an adventure like this will be a hard experience to beat. We'll leave you with a short read on the benefits associated with the ocean to help you make your mind up :)
Surfing has a long history dating back to the ancient Hawaiians and Polynesians. In recent decades, surfing has emerged as a highly competitive, widely recognised sport (it will be featured in the 2020 Olympics in Japan), as well as a very aspirational lifestyle. An important aspect to note about surfing (and indeed anytime spent in the ocean for that matter), is the pleasure or “stoke” factor it delivers for people from all walks of life. Besides the health, fitness and adventure benefits surfing offers, “stoke” is one of the most important and beneficial rewards it confers on participants.
Recently published research shows that people feeling “surf stoked” are, in fact, enjoying a chemical cocktail triggered by the charged ions found in the atmosphere around turbulent water. While surfing, we experience elevated levels of Adrenalin and Dopamine. Adrenalin raises the heart rate and increases the reaction time (the fight or flight reflex), while Dopamine is a chemical neurotransmitter triggered in the body when undertaking pleasurable activities.
While the adrenalin rush may provide an edge in the water, the effects subside quickly once ashore. However, surf-°©stoke remains long after we’re back on the beach. Research suggests these persistent effects of surf euphoria may be attributed to an unlikely candidate: sea spray. The turbulence created by breaking waves alters the physical structure of the air and water, breaking apart water and air molecules and releasing charged ions into the atmosphere. On their eternal quest for perfect waves, surfers inevitably encounter this altered atmospheric state. Some scientists are convinced this abundance of negative ions has a positive effect on mood by triggering the release of Endorphins and Serotonin – the “happy hormones” – and increasing blood flow and oxygen circulation through the body.
