About The Hoek

The Hoek is a prestigious surf break located at the western end of Noordhoek Beach in Cape Town, South Africa. This spot is celebrated for its powerful, hollow right-hand waves that break over a dynamic reef and sand bottom, especially at low tide. While offering a thrilling experience for experienced surfers, access involves a walk from the Noordhoek car park, and the cold Atlantic waters require appropriate gear.
