what's on
Sunset Beach sits on the Table View–Blouberg strip — among the most consistent kitesurfing venues on earth and the stage of the Red Bull King of the Air. The summer south-easter (“the Cape Doctor”) blows 20–35 knots, November through March. Kite storage, rinse station and instructors on request.

Watch it from the house.
The waiting-period window for this year has not yet been announced by Red Bull. Typically late November to early December — check back, or book early and stay flexible.
