Hi there wave lovers! and other freaks ;0)

Me and my sister decided to leave Finland behind for one month in July to go somewhere where we could find a surfers paradise (quite low expectations we have here going on...)
Anyway our dream was to travel to Bali but unfortunately all of the flights were fully booked :( and now we have no idea where to travel!

Because we would need a place where to rent a board ( I have my own but now I would like to try a smaller one) and my sister haven't surffed yet so I think it would be a good idea to get someone to teach her the basics. I have only surffed for two years (i lived in southern part of France last summer and the summer before that) so I don't have the skill to teach her being a beginner also ...

So we would really appreciate if you could send us some ideas and nice stories etc. as soon as possible so we could finally book our flights. I promise something really really good will happen to you if you do ;0)

Thanks!

ps and of cource we would like to scuba and enjoy beach bars etc. also...

Hanna & Saija

perfect that the replies came through so fast! Thanks!
UK is little bit too close but Tahiti and Costa Rica sounds exciting!! I'll have to start surfing the net a little bit and find out more :0) I can almost smell the sea air and feel the waves already... :0)
