In fact, I think I've even been to this spot on a trip out west almost two years ago. I didn't surf it, but I think I sat on the small point in the left of the picture and took photos of my friends Gav and Froth surf.
Gav, if you're reading this, do I recall correctly?
Today's second photo is of the classic South African wave: Jeffrey's Bay.

When posting the satellite photo of Jeffrey's, I noticed it's not far from the classic wave discovered by the all time classic Bruce Brown surf movie: The Endless Summer.
If, incidentally, you're interested in learning a bit more about this classic surf movie, check out the following YouTube preview (or 'trailer' as they call it here in my new home the US):
And if you liked that (unofficial) trailer, you can purchase the movie at the following link:
