The man, who surfing website Wavescape identifies as Tim van Heerden, was attacked by an unknown breed of shark on Lookout Beach.
According to reports, the attack happened at Keurbooms River Mouth. Despite paramedics' attempts to resuscitate him at the beach, he later died in hospital.
Wavescape writes that eye witnesses said the shark looked like a "small" great white and that the man was pulled out of the water by a fellow surfer, identified as Charles Reitz.
