Surfing | Sea Harvest Pipe Junior 2025 - Good Conditions Forecast, Entries Close Tomorrow
Pollock Beach, Gqeberha—The swell forecast for the Sea Harvest Pipe Junior at Pipe is very good at this stage, with a promising swell predicted, along with favourable winds. Pollock Beach offers beachbreak left and right-hand breaking waves for competitors.
Pollock Beach likes a bit of swell, and while the forecast is still early at this stage, there will be a solid south-westerly groundswell around for the contest, combined with south-westerly offshore winds. This will translate to perfect high-performance conditions for the best junior surfers in the country to compete.
This event takes place from 2nd to 4th April, with U12, U14, U16 and U18 girls and boys divisions.
It follows the Royal St Andres Hotel Interclub Champs (1 April) and will be followed by the Nelson Mandela Bay Pro Junior WSL JQS event on 5th to 6th April. These three surfing tournaments comprise the Nelson Mandela Bay Surf Fest.
Entries are open HERE but will close off tomorrow afternoon.
U12 division surfers are permitted to enter their division as well as the U14 division, U14 surfers are allowed to enter their division and the U16 division, and U16 surfers may enter their division and the U18 division
