Fun Day at Y-Tops

Mark and I went out with Samoana Crew by boat to Y-tops late in April
It was a very friendly wave, especially compared to what we'd been out in at Village Lefts the few days before

April Surf Wrapup

One of the great attractions of Samoa for me (Andrew) was the prospect of quality surfing. Certainly it promised more than the other two postings Amanda applied for - Vietnam and Cambodia.

After a slow start in March whilst waiting for boards to arrive and working out which spots work in which conditions, April produced what is hopefully only a taste of what is still to come.

We got consistent swells on the north coast throughout the month, and from particularly easter onwards some great waves on the south, with days at spots such as boulders, coconuts, y-tops, pebbles, Village lefts.

I've made friends with a few surfers over here, but its rare to have too many in the water.

On a couple of occasions we've gone out with one of the resorts on their boats to the outer reef

Hope some of these pics get a couple of you surfers out there over here to share a few waves!!
