SURF BUDDY – WHERE’S THE BEST PLACE TO MEET OTHER SURFERS?
A surf buddy makes special moments unique!
After your first wave, you’re hooked – surf fever has got you. Ever since, you feel like spending every free minute on waves and on a surfboard, and you can’t imagine a holiday without surfing anymore. You’ve really caught the bug…
You look around your circle of friends and realise, disappointed, that none of your friends or acquaintances share your enthusiasm for salty hair, sandy feet and zinc on your face. So what now?? Be happy! Because now you have the chance not only to pursue your new passion, but also to meet new people. Lots of people out there feel exactly the same way as you – and you can easily meet them online without having to go on your next surf trip with them straight away!
In this blog you’ll find out why it’s so great to paddle out into the line-up together and where you can find your perfect surf buddy without much effort.
Shared happiness is double happiness
We all know it: life is just so much better when you can share special moments with people you love. That’s not to say that surfing alone isn’t fun – on the contrary, sometimes the peace and quiet in the water is exactly what you need. But for some reason, it’s twice as nice with friends who cheer you on as you surf past them, or push you into waves you’d never have paddled for otherwise.

“Surf Buddy”-los? Solo in den Surfurlaub
The easiest and most authentic way to meet a whole bunch of surf buddies at once is, quite simply, a surf holiday! Especially when you travel alone, you meet an incredible number of new people. You’re more communicative, more open and actively approach others. If you go to a surf camp on your own, finding surf buddies is practically guaranteed!
Everyone is there for one and the same reason – surfing! The shared interest and common passion bond you quickly and intensely. In the water you face the same challenges and the same fears, support each other, celebrate each other’s successes and cheer each other on. The chances that on a trip like this you’ll find not only surf buddies but even friends for life are pretty high! So off you go – overcome your inner scaredy-cat and dive into the adventure 🙂
