Once the Jewel of the North Coast

Join North Coast Surfers Union

From Bog’s 'Grand Stand' spectators watched wave gladiators charge the cauldron pits crunching across the bay. It’s time for revival.

Finally we are trying to get our act together. Instead of just sitting on the beach and bitching about all the issues, we are getting our act together!! If you are a surfer on the North Coast and live here pay rates and use the beach ... you have...

Bog Bay once famed for its epic barrles is no more.

All that is left are the misty memories of the old salty dogs, who tell of stories old and myths of the ledendary wave at Bog Bay. Mans intervention squeezed dry the life vein of sand to the bay, leaving a lifeless corps in need of resurrecting.

Bog Bay needs your help to remove the rocks that form the failed tidal pool on the Boulder Bay side. By collecting as much info on the area before and after we will be able to convince the 'Powers that Be' that the solution to Ballito's sandless beaches is to remove the rocks.

The undeniable fact is that Bathers beach was chosen to be the bathing area because of its wide rockless beach. And Bog used to break all the way past the rocks into Bathers.

Help us restore what has been lost ...or stolen ....

The upside for them is wider less rocky beaches ...hey maybe the… Continue
