Prices: From R825 pps per night ($50)
These Budget packages are awesome for surfers and adventure travelers.
The land and conditions in the South are harsh, but the surf is good, if you know when and where to go . You need a boat and you need a guide , as all waves are 1 to 4 km off shore.
The package is not a surf camp but more so a mobile surf trip with four main base camps in Tulear, Mangily, Sarodrano, and Anakao, it is if you like four surf trips in one. The 60km stretch of coastline between Ifaty and Anakao lays host to more than 18 breaks which are accessible by boat only. At least 12 of these breaks are world class on their day. A mobile surf tour is the best and only real way of maximising potential surfing time in the region. The waves are quite fickle and local knowledge as well as a good logistic are essential in scoring the best waves on offer each day. Tulear is no real secret to SA or Reunion Island surfers as they have been coming here for some years now. However due to the complications mentioned a lot of surfers have not had the best experiences as they have had to just stay in one particular spot for their stay and have often missed the best waves. Add to this the dilemma of dealing with local fisherman to get out to the breaks as well as the lack of local knowledge it hasn’t always been an easy trip for nomadic surfers. The packages include the means and know how to get you to the best waves everyday. Surfing in Tulear is definitely going to explode in the future as quality uncrowded waves such as are on offer here are a very rare commodity nowadays.

• Meet and greet from Tulear airport or bus station plus return transfers
