Bellows - False Bay, South Africa Bellows is a powerful reef break located far out to sea, predominantly featuring left-hand waves but capable of breaking both directions. It requires a substantial swell of 2.4 to 3 meters to start working and can hold waves over 6 meters. The bottom consists of sharp rocks and coral, making it essential for surfers to be cautious of urchins and rips. This spot is one of South Africa's hidden gems, often overlooked due to its inaccessibility. Accessible only by boat, it lies near Seal Island, home to a large population of great white sharks. The best time to surf is during winter when swells are generated by storms. Despite its remoteness, Bellows can deliver perfect barrels on good days, but surfers should be wary of the local wildlife and unpredictable weather conditions. With minimal crowds, it offers a unique experience for adventurous surfers seeking solitude and thrilling waves. Always check tide and sea reports before heading out.
