Seal Point is where modern surf travel began—the wave that captivated the world in Bruce Brown's Endless Summer (1966). This long right-hand point break in Cape St. Francis once offered 150+ meter rides of pristine perfection. Unfortunately, harbour construction and sand dynamics have reportedly diminished its quality over the decades. But on rare days when everything aligns, you can still glimpse the magic that launched a thousand surf trips. A pilgrimage site for surf history buffs.
