Botany Bay Surf Spot Guide, US Virgin Islands Botany Bay sits at the far western tip of St. Thomas and represents one of the most rewarding yet challenging surf experiences in the US Virgin Islands. This is a right-hand point break over sharp coral reef that delivers hollow, fast-moving waves with genuine power. The isolation […]
It's not easy to find, after all it is about 500m out to see... would be a hell of a paddle. I was staying at the Sa'moana, so was easy cause we were with guides.. you will need a boat, from land. It's about 300m west of Pebbles, wedgy right just near the reef pass to get back into land.
Waterfalls Surf Spot Guide, Western Samoa Waterfalls delivers one of the most rewarding reef-coral rights in Samoa, firing off flat rocks with a steep takeoff that leads into hollow, powerful barrels capable of swallowing a bus at 2 meters. This ledgey beast on the north side of Upolu offers an intense, exhilarating vibe for those […]
Awesome right hander working on all tides, and even surfable with onshore SE winds. Not too heavy, with big or small barrels from 1-10 feet, over about 50-100m. Sets swing very wide when bigger, with essentially 2 peaks. Best with SW swell, north winds, maybe mid-high tide, 3-6 feet.
The only problem, as with much of Samoa, is that strong SE trade winds wreck it from March-October, so you have to get up early in Samoa (before about 9AM) unless you go from Oct-Feb, when there is less swell.
Can get crowded depending on how many surfers staying at Coconuts Resort, Sinalei & Maninoa Surf Camp.
Watch out for the end of the wave nasty suck up onto shallow coral when swell is south.
Best to surf before the trade wind gets up.
Pebbles Surf Spot Guide, Western Samoa Pebbles delivers powerful left-hand reef waves that barrel hollow and fast over a sharp coral bottom, creating an exhilarating challenge for experienced surfers seeking uncrowded perfection. This remote break on Upolu's south coast offers a pristine, peaceful vibe with waves horseshoeing dramatically for long rides up to 300 meters […]
Awesome barreling lefthander, very fast long barrels, from 2-6 feet+ (maybe bigger if you are insane), over about 150m+, with little time for cutbacks. Very shallow, so only mid and high tide. Lines up better with S-SE swells, rather than the dominant SW, and needs offshore northerly winds, or you can forget it. Trade winds blow it out from March-October unless you are up very early (eg before 9AM).
One of the best surf spots around: An incredibly hollow mechanical right-hander.Thick lipped and fast.Horse shoes around the reef.This day the water was so clear you would get into a trance watching the reef under you.Finding yourself inside is not fun but if it's not to low you can let yourself get pushed in over the reef and into the deeper water on the other side.Then simply paddle back out(If you still have finns and not to many cuts)Booties are a must.
