Hey just thought i'd get your advice, I'm keen to go on a trip in january/ february 17, but I'm not sure what would be better for surfing.
I went to Sri Lanka at the start of this year and there was definitely some good surf, but there was only one spot I really liked (this amazing a-frame reef break), and it wasn't super consistent...
Indo on the other hand I've never been to. From what I can tell off season is still pretty decent, you just don't get those really big days.
In Sri Lanka the biggest day I saw was only around 5 foot anyway.
The only other factor is that Sri Lanka has all those euro babes hanging around who want to learn to surf lol
Anyone got any thoughts / suggestions?
i could probably live at beach hut again in arugam bay...
but why not go somewhere you have never gone before? go to chilli
Jan/Feb is a good time to take a tent and go across the ditch..cheap, good waves, less crowds, cool locals, good meat pies and beer..
I would do that every year for the rest of my life if I was single..BUT, my family commitments force me to save $$ and go to Bali
Try Somalia's capital Mogadishu or Colombia, India, Iraq, Lebanon, Kenya, Peru, Pakistan, Tunisia all reasonably safe places and should find some cheap hookers
