Not June, but at least Nov-March or so, there's "cheap" (meaning $860 or so) flights, Fort Lauderdale to Cape Town. Check Google Flights. Of course that's summer for them, and ironically enough, their water's colder in their summer. Camps Bay. Best time to visit is likely August. It's spring and the botanical gardens are spectacular.

Was it a reverse hurricane swell that has never happened in my 40 plus years of surfing or a wind line farther south created by the pressure gradient?

yeah that was weird, but in a very good way for a change, much much better than anyone expected. That past Sunday afternoon with Alex the local buoy was reading 3 ft 8 secs and the wave period showing at the beach had to have been 10 or 11 sec. Also same on Wed am, the buoy data didn't jive with the bigger/better swell showing at the beach. And then last Sun aft and Mon am the buoy was reading 1.6 ft and 10/11 sec, that typically gives us waist high LB heaven here, but it was very small. Not sure if the data recording equipment or software has changed or if its something else.
