Is This Place on Your Must-Surf List?

Summer in Hossegor is just about over and we had so many great days of offshore, fun waves – the summer swells here were unusually frequent with few flat days. Now autumn has arrived, the mornings are cooler but the water still warm and the swell is picking up again so we’re looking forward to a few of those corduroy days and, of course, I’m really looking forward to the Quiksilver Pro and the arrival of the best surfers in the world to show us how it’s done!

So although a last minute surf trip to Hossegor is a great call, some of you will already be planning your winter escape to surf in warm, tropical waters.

Sri Lanka might just be what the doctor has ordered. I was fortunate enough to visit Sri Lanka a couple of years ago, to hand-pick the hotels and resorts that we are listing on The Perfect Wave website.

Sri Lanka ticks so many boxes: It’s a direct flight from Europe, you can surf there during our winter, and there’s a wide variety of breaks and accommodation options for all levels of surfing. There’s also incredible scenery, fascinating culture, friendly people and amazing national parks.
