Inner Kom

Inner Kom is a surf spot located in Cape Town, South Africa, in the coastal village of Kommetjie. The spot is part of a group of breaks that includes Outer Kom and The Ledge. The surf spot provides left waves. The bottom is made up of boulders and the best conditions are usually found at high tide. The wave length ranges from 50 to 150 meters depending on the swell and conditions. The spot is known for regular surf and is considered a regional classic. The wave is suitable for all levels, but it is important to check your skills before paddling out, be sure that the spot and the conditions match your level. Access to the break is by a rock jump into thick seaweed, followed by a paddle through kelp beds to reach the open water. The water temperature is around 14°C, so a wetsuit is recommended. The best surf forecast is when a west swell meets an east-southeast offshore wind, and the spot works best from mid to high tide. Hazards include kelp beds, rips, and occasional shark sightings. The crowd is usually light, but when it gets busy, respect the locals and always check the surf etiquette.
