Zinkwazi Beach

Zinkwazi Beach is an SE-facing beach break in Kwadukuza, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It picks up swell from NE to SSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 30% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NW: light winds or NW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SE onshores chop it up.
