Well that depends on personal preferences and your ability to handle them and the monsters can only be handled by the very best and I'm certainly not anywhere in that league...Jaws in Haiwai Peahi, Nazare Portugal,The Killer wave Haiwai,Cortes Bank,Mavenda California and The Wedge,Mullughmore Head Ireland and the most frightening Shipstern Bluff in Tasmania and believe it or not in France...The Myth.

You can find them on the internet.

I reckon if you have the skill and guts to that...you have reached the highest rush available to man and there is very else to achieve except climbing Mt Everest on your own.

 J Bay and Elands Bay is cool too. I enjoyed Stilbaai Punt back in the day.

Good spots, ou Draad but on lay man's terms surfable without playing Russian roulette...a wipe out in California, Portugal, France, Hawai, Tahiete and Tasmania would probably be the last breathe you take...and that's forever...yes our surf is good and perhaps the longest ride is Jeffreys bay...but all of these foreign waves are totally out our league unless you have phenomonal skills and a hidden death wish.

There is no rugby now...holidays are just around the corner and most of us are in a holiday mood...posting about what's happening in SA rugby proposals leans more towards fiction than fact and is as dull as dishwater...surfing is a stoked up sport although most of us are getting a bit long in the tooth to actively pursue it anymore and fishing at the moment is far more stimulating...for those who don't like it I suggest jukskei or Bingo...it's less risky than going down to the local in Jo'Burg, Cape Town, Ipswich,Auckland,Brisbane,North Harbour, Chicago,Moscow, Warsaw and Riversdale or anywhere for that matter...

 Seal Point at Cape St Francis could be pretty scary......no way out if you lost your board, and when men were men nobody attached their boards.

 Seal Point was frightening...I went out there once when I was 5  bricks plus high...bloed jonk... got an awesome ride by luck and then discreetly decided thats enough...I felt the wave and knew that I didn't want to tempt fate further but this is grass to a jungle to whats above...sadly I did not surf more later in life...fishing, and spearfishing and hunting became my obsession
