Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
I've never been to Indo during the rainy season, but made two surf
pilgrimages for a total of 6 months there. There is no wind really to
speak of. The trades are light (5 - 15 kts) from April to July, but things
could be different in November. I never saw a windsurfer anywhere from
Nias to Sumbawa.
As for warnings, the usual stuff about sharp coral, staph infections,
stonefish and sea snakes apply.
On an unrelated note: I'm ditching work and going to Tuba right now. Bob
will be there, and he said : Bring your helmet, cause it's going to hurt.
My employer is sending me to Surabaya, Indonesia for about 10 days of early
November. I will probably have 2 weekends to myself & I was
wondering
about windsurfing sites, shops, conditions, etc. If anyone has been,
please email recommendations, warnings, tips or info.
Thanks in advance,
Naomi
