ive been amazed at how many remote islands ive found in the atlantic and pacific. i think the best ive found for surf (at least from what i can see in the pics.) is lle ansterdam. i mean besides samoa and cook islands and hawaii and those obvious ones. if you look at it, check out the pics near the south west coast.

i also really like ascension island, french polynesia, reunion (although its not so remote) and azores

English Bay on Ascension is supposed to have good waves, or at least, it did in 82 lol.

"The sea around Ascension Island is not to be trifled with, the breakers being of a nasty type called "dumpers", which are apparently unsuited to all life forms apart from sand-eaters, turtles and crabs.

Given that some of the waves have traveled over two thousand miles to get here, that is hardly surprising. During the southern winters storms around the Falklands can produce heavy swells some 4 to 6 days later around the island.

To a British mind the word Atlantic and the picture on the left conjure up thoughts of the sea being cold, but as Ascension is just off the equator the opposite isf definitely the case !"

The Azores look like they should get some MENTAL surf.

Anyone been there?
