Umzumbe Surf House offers a unique beachfront surf house and surf camp with clean, affordable accommodation and big surf vibes.
Rich grew up in Durban, but spent his weekends and holidays on the South Coast, crawling around his families Surf House. Lucky enough to score epic surf for most of his life, surfing is now everything to Rich. When he isn't surfing around South Africa with guests or showing them Africa's bush life, he is teaching surf lessons and running his surf camp.

Amber and Derek (day & night managers) were helpful from the get-go. Welcoming, friendly and helpful -- it was easy to feel at home right away. Beautiful, casual location good for quiet relaxation including a massage if you like.

I had an amazing time with Ali and Rich. They are so friendly, they took care of me. We had great time surfing and Braai with everybody. The backpackers is so nice with a big garden, we are in the water with 2 min walking. It's really clean, we have towels and they clean the bed every morning ! Perfect...

I absolutely loved it, the Surf house has a very homey feel. Thank you for the kind assistance. The weather may not have been in our favor but we still made the best out of our little getaway, the oceanic view was remarkable and absolutely breathtaking. I will definitely be back.

We combined a work/surf trip at Umzumbe for a week and the Beach House served as an ideal spot to do so! Awesome coastline and super friendly staff/team made for an ideal environment - if you're heading to Umzumbe, point your steering wheel in this direction.
