Overview
Bink Surf Tours is a South African surf tour company based in Durban, specializing in customized surf trips to Mozambique and the rest of South Africa including Jeffrey's Bay.
Transport
Most areas in South Africa are accessible by road in a normal vehicle, but once in Mozambique a 4x4 motor vehicle is required to get to the more remote surf spots, hence the clean and uncrowded waves.
Food and Water
These are not a problem, as all areas in Southern Africa provide rich and tasty meals at reasonable prices, this is especially true in Mozambique where the seafood is of a great variety and of the highest quality. Bottled water is available at most convenience stores and gas stations.
Equipment
Depending on your surfing ability, whatever boards you ride at home should be fine for most of the breaks in Southern Africa. At most places along the coastline it is possible to surf a variety of both powerful or mellow breaks, so should you wish to take advantage of this variety, a quiver of at least two boards will be required.
For example in Durban it is possible to surf waves from a mellow two to three feet in one part of town to a powerful four to six feet in another part of town all in one day.
The normal swells along the coastline are generally two to four feet, with the bigger swells averaging between six to eight feet.
The spots that can handle the big swells are not for the faint hearted, as the power at some of these breaks is definitely of the board breaking kind. But, when these spots break the surf on offer is incredible, and your sessions out there will be ones to remember for a long time.
To buy surf equipment in Southern Africa, this is limited to South Africa, where all the top local and international brands are all readily available in nearly all towns along the coastline. Durban is the hub of the surf industry and here anything from boards to wetsuits to clothing are easily purchased. South Africa has a lot of well known and internationally respected surfboard shapers, so getting good quality new or second-hand surfboards here is not a problem. However, when traveling to Mozambique it is important to take any extra fins, fin keys, leashes, wax etc along with you, as there are no surf shops at all.
