Umhlanga Rocks surf report

Umhlanga Rocks is a popular tourist beach surrounded by upmarket restaurants and hotels. This is a beach break with some rocky sections depending on how much sand is around. It is less protected from the harbour mouth than spots further South so it gets a good amount of swell. It is also more exposed to the wind so can get lumpy before the other breaks further South.
