Intermediate surf guiding at Pandawa

Another day in Paradise and the sun is finally shining again! Moderate offshore wind conditions and a medium size swell were a perfect match for this left-hand reef break. Waking up at dawn was not necessary today due to the very low tide early in the morning. With enough sleep and having breakfast before the surf session, catching waves was no problem at all, despite the strong current.

Staying in position can be difficult here due to the strong side current and wind. Having a landmark on the beach is crucial to being able to catch the waves in the right spot. If you are not sure which landmark to take, ask some of the local surfers who know the surf spot very well. Keep in mind though, the landmark for expert surfers might be different than for beginner or intermediate surfers.
