The Mascaret, and the Silver dragon tidal bores as is the Bono!

A full raglan wave in New Zealand through all sections, there are some ridiculously long waves out there!

Hi Kellychen welcome, for you in Vietnam the two closest tidal Bores (where a tide wave runs up a river a long way) are the Silver dragon in China and the Bono inn the northern area of Sumatra.
The Mascaret is in France and the Severn Bore in England. Raglan is long point break in New Zealand and they have all been ridden. There are no tidal bores on the Mekong unfortunately.
There is surf in Vietnam good learners surf. :D
