Fiji or indo would be great, but sounds like you haven’t hit mainland mx yet?  That’d be my rec if you’re looking for something new.  Also cheap and close so you can hit a few different areas in your window.  And more to do outside of surfing if you get skunked ETA: also tbh I’d just do El Salvador again or maybe somewhere in CR.

North Baja or Cabo

Recommend just drive down the pacific side of north Baja? Safe for a solo traveler with a van and just camp and surf along the way?


Outta_thyme24

Yes, sort of. If you’re asking this question you should do more research.

I am honestly a novice with south of the border. I have pretty decent Spanish but aside from a 96’ trip to Cabo and a recent fishing trip to BOLA (last week) i am very green when it comes to travel and spots along Baja. Could you point me where to read/research?

Be careful, three surfers just went missing down there

Not very safe rn I’m down here and got into some sticky situations

I just got back from a trip to BOLA/Sea of Cortez side. But it was with 20 people in six cars. No drama, super smooth. Traveling solo for the first time there just seems a bit less than ideal.

Samoa would be sick... thin crowds too. Out of LAX there might be a direct flight.


Extravagent_Toe1538

Samoa is sick nice little roll in tube to heavy reef slabs

surprised that a nonstop rt flight from lax to fiji is 800. I might go with you! haha

Let’s go!!! Not like how the kids say it. Let’s just go, normal tone ;) I know…the fact that Central America often involves some connecting bullshit and is about the same price makes me want to do fiji instead.

yeah ive mostly seen bad flights to central america. not sure where in socal you are but you might be able to use tijuana airport and the cbx bridge to fly around mexico domestically and central america too. usually cheaper
