Sharks Point is one of the only bays in the area where you will be able to easily and safely launch a kayak, but having said that it all depends on the conditions so ensure that check out the conditions before launching. I have found high tide to be best, meaning that you need to launch before high tide and ensure that you return before low tide when the waves can become big. Never launch alone and ensure that your kayak is sea worthy. Check that you have all of the necessary safety equipment with you such as a radio, cell phone, life jacket, etc.
Take note that the Wild Coast is notorious for being extremely dangerous, so please ensure that you know what you do when launching. The breakers can be far out at the other bays such as Mpande, Mpananzane etc and it makes it difficult to beach without capsizing. My suggestion is to not venture to far out and rather return safely at Sharks Point.
Launching and beaching a kayak in the bay is a pleasure at times but it is certainly not without risk.
