Question

Hiya,

Myself n the b/f are going down south of england end of may for a friend of b/f's wedding, day before wedding apparantly we're all going surfing and id love to take part in it, although iv never done it before...

What should i pack as i know im borrowing a wetsuit....

And seeing it is May so unless the sun comes out it may still be chilly....

Answer 1

A Board, leash, wax and a wet suit is all you need to go surfing. The rest would be pretty much the same as any other trip. Woops forgot bathing suit and a towel. :-)

Answer 2

I hope you will be with people who know how to surf. The ocean is a wonderful place, but it demands respect. If your friends are surfers, you'll be fine, though. Bring a bathing suit and towel, the surfers should have the board(s), or get you a rental board. Have fun, be careful.

Answer 3

grab some sunblock.  Beside the basic surfing essentials like a board, leash ect, ect, you should bring something warmer because usually when you get out of the water you want to get as warm as you can as fast as you can.  maybe a sweatshirt, sweater or fleece
