Jeffreys Bay Dune Ride
Jeffreys Bay is world-famous as one of the planet’s finest right-hand point breaks — a surf destination that draws elite surfers from across the globe each year for the WSL Championship Tour event. The coastal dunes and beaches around J-Bay also offer rewarding mountain bike riding on a 15km dune and coastal circuit between the town and Cape St Francis.
What to Expect
Sand tracks and coastal singletrack through the dune terrain of the J-Bay coastline. Sandy terrain requires lower tyre pressure and wider tyres for manageable riding — expect a physical workout even on flat terrain as sand demands more effort than hard gravel. The Indian Ocean views and the surf break visible from the coastal sections are spectacular.
J-Bay as a Destination
J-Bay has excellent accommodation, restaurants and a vibrant outdoor sports culture. The combination of surfing, mountain biking and the beach environment makes it one of the Eastern Cape’s most complete outdoor destinations.
Getting There
Jeffreys Bay is on the N2 between Gqeberha and George. GPS: -34.0523, 24.9234.
