Three Best Surf Sites In America
First on your surfing holiday itinerary should be the amazing Cocoa Beach in Florida. This beach is home to some classic breaks but you have to make sure your trip is timed right. Go during summer and you might get some excellent waves but you also quite likely to be sitting on your board, bobbing up and down and wondering where all the swell went. The winter months however will give you something different altogether. The winter surf is a great deal more reliable and often kicks up swells of close to 10ft. This place is a lot of fun and is a friendly and safe place to hang out, making it perfect for amateurs or those looking for a good party. If you’re after the best surf possible, make sure you visit between November and March
Secondly, how about visiting the surf that started it all. Hawaii has long been known as a surfing paradise. Mainly because it’s home to some of the best and largest waves on earth but also because it embraces surfing so openly. It’s so steeped in surfing history that you could easily spend your whole time on your Hawaii holidays, cycling around on the traditional second hand bikes, visiting historic sites, talking to locals about the good old days when surfboards were made out of wood, or checking out the thousands of surfboards on sale. Well, maybe not the whole time, you need to save some to check out the 20ft waves at Oahu or the miles and miles of beautiful surf at Ehukai Beach and Waimea Beach. Pure Heaven
Last but not certainly not least, no American surf holiday would be complete without experiencing the “surf city” of the USA, Huntington, which funnily enough is also known for the snowboards they produce.The sun loves being in the sky here and top surfers flock like sheep whenever there are waves. Some of surfing’s biggest stars hang out here a lot and you’ll be sure to catch one of the many surfing comps that take place frequently.It can get a little on the busy side however, there were eleven million visitors last year. So if you’re after more of quiet surfing holiday come and enjoy the water in the winter months.
