A Look at What the Supertubes and J Bay Have in Store

If you have not heard about the Supertubes in J bay (Jeffreys Bay) in South Africa then you probably are not that much into scouting out World events and waves that can blow your mind away. I have been to this iconic place and have just stood there amazed. The waves just keep on coming, cosistently. You hardly have to check the surf report because there is hardly an occasion where you will have an off...

Top Surf Camps from around the World

It’s amazing how many surf camps have popped up just over the last couple of years. In the most remote places and in tiny villages you will be sure to come across a surf camp. It makes sense. If the waves are good and you have made a bit of money then why not head off somewhere in Costa Rica or Brazil where the sun is always shining and set up a surf camp. I couldn’t imagine anything better. When it...

Pipe Dreams – Where do you want to go next?

So, I was just checking a couple of things out at the book store – yeah, they do still exist! I came across Pipe Dreams by Kelly Slater, which I have read years ago, but it just got me thinking. I’m not someone who is really that much into competitive surfing. It’s all good to go out there and watch a couple of pros doing their aerials, but at the end of the day surfing is about something...

Undiscovered Surf Spots – Well Almost..

Surf spots like crazy beautiful places in California, Hawaii and Oz where you have to weave your way through crowds are all good and well, but it’s usually where the whole world and his wife ends up and to really get away from it all and get your slice of the “endless wave” you don’t have to travel to the ends of the earth. Maybe just a flight or two! Places like Morocco, Latin...

What Are The Top 8 Surf Spots In California?

Since the days of the Beach Boys and the iconic surf films that came out of Hollywood in the early 1960’s, California has come to be associated with beach culture and surfing not only as a sport, but as a lifestyle. And with good reason—California is home to some of the best surf (not to mention some of the best weather) in the world. With over 800 miles of coastline, there is every kind of surf...
