Local Knowledge

You must stay at one of the G-Land surf camps — there is no other accommodation.

The camp includes meals — focus entirely on surfing.

Monkeys will steal your food if you leave it unattended — not a joke.

The wave is powerful and unforgiving — intermediate to advanced surfers only.

June-August is the most consistent window — book the camp well in advance.
