At Jeffreys Bay Tourism, we strongly recognise the importance of e-marketing and social media. With continuing growth in online sales and more that 60% of travel for both business and leisure now being booked online via the web the internet cannot be considered a small part of the tourism sector.

Perfect surf persisted throughout for the second day of competition at the Billabong Pro J-Bay. Four to six-foot waves poured down the point, allowing the contest organisers to put another full day of surfing in the bag.

Big and perfect surf has been predicted for the opening day of the Billabong Pro J-Bay 2012, and is set to continue through the first three days of competition.

The current U20 and Open Men's South African champions are both entered into the Billabong Pro J-Bay, set to take place at Supertubes 10-15 July. The contest is a 6 Star Men's event on the ASP World Tour.
