Question

How often do surfers go surfiing, and for how long do they stay out in the water, before going home?

Answer 1

can vary, some people go a few times a week, other about once a week, and some maybe once or twice a month, or less if there arent any waves. pro's go in at least once a day as long as there are waves. some people stay in for 30 mins, most for about 1-2 hours. but sometimes if the conditions are good, and ur having a good gentle surf and not too tired u can stay in for about many hours, if u have breaks, like maybe 4-6.

Answer 2

I normally stay in the water for at least 2 hours cause it get cold and your fingers and toes go num and you can hardly move them even in your wetsuit.

Answer 3

I try to go at least 3 times a week during warm weather.  In the winter I surf maybe a couple of times a month since I refuse to surf during bad weather.  

In warm weather I'll usually stay out 2-3 hours in the winter I'll stay as long as I'm still warm, which might be an hour to an hour and a half.

Answer 4

A lot of surfers try to go every day, and stay out for about 2-3 hours. (Sometimes going several times a day).

Answer 5

When I was a grommet (around 15 -16 years old) it was common for me to stay out around seven hours, and not even come in. When the surf pumps the whole world could blow up and you couldnt care less. I remember my mum on the shore waving for me to come in because my boss had called and wanted me at work, I just pretended I didnt see her!!!Haaa, Work!!! I dont think so.

Answer 6

I usually go for 2 hours at sunrise and 2 hours at sunset!

Answer 7

It depends on the surfer and how clse they are to the beach. I love less than five minutes from the beach and my kids go everyday in the summer from eight til four.....they stop for lunch but they are on the go most of the day.

My husband (stay at home dad) goes everyday too.

I would love to go everyday but as a working mom its just not that easy. I do get to go about four times a week.

Most surfers will go as often as they can and stay out for as long as possible-its seriousl addictive.
