Flick through the SURFING LESSONS FOR ALL section, has everything you need to know on there.

As for quiet surf breaks they're hard to come by and annoucing them on the internet will only result in more people finding out where they are and hence becoming more busy.

Funny how the guy who is shouting doesn't like the VOLUME OF PEOPLE!!
:lol:
In fairness though, if you don't want loads of people you have two choices,

1. get to the coast and look for somewhere good/ empty (good luck if you choose this one!)

2. Surf in the winter and get VERY cold!! (it works!)

Cheers

Sinista!

Man, I dont know what I will do once I go to a busy break....cus the water temps here are still at like 40. The buisiest break I have ever been on was about 5 people......When I was in mexico there was about 15, but it was a big break, so that doesnt count.

New guy, just go out, and giv'er. Rent a longboard, read the threads on her how to do stuff, read the how to surf guide. and just get out there and do it.
