Does anyone know where to find suitable rocks to tumble and polish in Copper Coast area of SA? I am new to this and am not sure where to start looking for rocks I can tumble and polish.

I have no idea but a big part of this hobby is the enjoyment found travelling to out of the way places to find the stones. I'd be starting by walking or snorkling fresh water streams. If you get the water worn ones then you have an idea what they'll look like pollished.
