I am looking to travel over the next month and have an idea in my head of what I am looking for, but keep getting conflicting information about different spots online. If any of you have any insight that could rule out or highlight a particular place that would be incredibly helpful!
I am hoping to find a place with most if not all of these:
1) Cheap accomodation - backpacking budget
2) Warm water (no wetties please!)
3) Consistent, reasonably uncrowded intermediate-advanced waves
4) Not completely remote or in the middle of nowhere, i.e I have done the empty-tropical-island vibe thing and would prefer to have some sort of city with restaurants, bars, etc to visit this time.
So far, the places I've researched that seem promising are Bali (although sounds very crowded in June), Sri Lanka, and Nicaragua...if you have any ideas I would be extremely grateful.
Cheers
