surfing in Namibia
  Cold water (The Benguela Current swings up from the southern antartic oceans...), lots of beasties in the water, great scenery and lots and lots of sand in the north (the Skeleton Coast). Probably lots more surf potential than the maps shows... but nobody ever goes there as the other areas are either very isolated or private (diamond mining companies) -or both...

Wanna add some info about surfing in Namibia: Let us know.
