Surfing is a major tourist attraction in South Africa. The east and south coasts provide an abundance of good surfing options, in particular Jeffreys Bay, south of Port Elizabeth. In fact 'J Bay' as it is known to locals qualifies up with the best in the world. South Africa has bred its own champions in Shaun Tomson and Wendy Botha and the sport of surfing remains hugely popular. A selection of surf shops can be found in all the main surfing spots.
