Hey ya'll, I'm heading to Fiji tomorrow for a week or so to organise the final contracts for windsurfing safaris in 2017. I'll keep you all posted for dates next year! Yeeewwww.

It just so happens that my trip coincides with a big swell and decent winds so I'll be first hand sampling the Fiji goodness. I'll post photos when I get back but here's a couple shots from last year.

I'll keep an eye on coastal watch wave of the week.

Who in they're right mind would sign up for windsurf tour with that third shot as incentive?

Try to dodge the sets on the way out, sometimes it's hard!

Looks awesome!

What camera did you use, looks like something from the 1950s!

Ok, couple more photos. Anyway who would be interested next year? PM me, comment on here or just green thumb to give me an idea. I'm trying to organise some pretty awesome things for next year but need to get an idea on how many would be keen to get amongst some of this.

Looking at an 8 day trip each month next year.
July August and Setember.

It's windy every day but you may get 3-4 completely calm days a month (perfect for surfing and scoring the right handers). 15-25kts I used my 5.3 and 88l board and I weigh 96kg.
