Surfing in Surin Beach
Phuket is notoriously unreliable for the continuity of its surf but that doesn’t put off real enthusiasts and neither has it stopped surfing clubs from forming nor a three-times-a-year surfing competition from being organised. The waves are storm generated so you’re only going to catch the big ones in the more volatile low season from May – October but there are surfable days even in the middle of high season.
Both north and south ends are good but the middle section is best avoided as it’s rocky. It’s worth bringing your board along but if you want to rent go to the lifeguard post and ask or try Saltwater Dreaming Surf Shop on the main road. (Read more about Surfing in Phuket...) Read More...
