Yo, Travel, we do get surf in Malaysia. Quite a bit, in fact. Have a look at Cherating, Desaru and Tanjung Resang too. Most surf will be during the NE monsoon, November till March. Still some left now, better chop-chop eh.

Oh, check out the pix on http://www.malaysiaseasports.com/surfing.html The proof is in the pudding eh :)

If you wanna know some more details, let me know.

Cheers.
