Surf camp Fiji

With a year round consistent swell and tropical climate Fiji is considered a true surfing paradise. All surf points are coral reef breaks, meaning that you reach them by boat. The surfing in Fiji is most suitable for experienced surfers but there are also some protected beaches, suitable for beginners, to be found.

The surf camp is owned by a Fijian family and is situated in the countryside on the coast just 30 minutes away from the gateway city of Nadi. The surf camp provides daily Surf trips by boat to the reef breaks around the famous Tavarua and Namotu Islands, which are located just 10-15 minutes away. The camp is surrounded by the water, a sugar cane field and coconuts trees, meaning that relaxing at the surf camp after a surf session is really easy.

The diving and the fishing of the area is just as good as the surfing. Both dive trips and fishing trips can be arranged via the surf camp upon arrival.

With its mild tropical climate, Fiji can be enjoyed all year round. The hot season extends from November to March, with daytime temperatures that average around 30C and a high humidity. May to September is cooler, with daytime temperatures that average around 25-30C and a lower humidity. The surfing in Fiji is most suitable for experienced surfers, why the surf camp does not offer standardized surf school + accommodation packages. But if you are a beginner surfer you are more than welcome to book‚ accommodation only‚ and then arrange some surf lessons when you arrive.

A half day of surf school can be arranged directly with the surf camp upon arrival.The surf lessons normally take place at Natadola beach or Sigatoka sand dune. These beginner beach breaks are reached by car and are located about 45 min away from the surf camp.

The price for surf lessons depend on how many guests that come along but will cost you 58 USD if you are the only participant. The price includes transportation (round trip), instruction (half-day) and surfboard rental. Natadola beach is the most beautiful beach on the mainland and you can also do horseback riding here at an extra cost of 18 USD.

Surfari is a great option for experienced surfers. Every day there is a different swell, a different wind etc. This doesn't matter if you are joining a surfari. Every day you will be transported to the best wave of the day. In Fiji the best surf spots are offshore reef breaks, only reachable by boat, why the surfari consists of daily boat trips. The boats usually depart early in the morning (they ca go as early as 6.30) and stay out between 2 to 5 hours. As most of the breaks are coral reef breaks, you are recommended to bring reef boots.

On the boat you will be accompanied by a professional surf guide, who will tell you all about the spots, how to get in and out, the currents, type of wave, etc. Besides the surf guide the crew consists of the boat captain and a lifeguard

There are several great surf spots you might end up surfing if you book a Surfari. And World-class surfing points are located just 10-15 minutes away by boat! Examples of frequently visited surf spots are “Wilks”, “Desperation”, “Namotu Left” ,”Mini Break”, “Swimming Pool” and the world famous “Cloud Break” .

If during a big swell period the waves don’t suit your experience you might also be transported to smaller waves, like Natadola beach, by car.

Since it's impossible to know when the weather will allow for the camp to perform a boat trip, these are not included in the deal. Almost every day you can book a boat trip directly with the camp. The cost of every trip is 30 USD and can not be booked in advance. You just book "accommodation only" and arrange the rest upon arrival.

The following is included in the package deal:

• Accommodation – standard or upgraded
• Possibility to book boat trips for the discounted price of 30 USD
• Pick up/ drop off at Nadi airport (when staying for at least 1 week)

The standard accommodation is a dormitory kind of accommodation. You will get your own bed and a closet for your stuff but you will share bedroom, bathroom etc. with 4 to 5 other guests. This is a great option for lone travelers, giving you a perfect opportunity to meet new friends.
