The view at breakfast.
Coral Coast, Fiji - It doesn’t get much better than this.
We’re staying at The Beach House, a fantastic backpacker resort on the Coral Coast. It has a white sand beach out the front, swaying coconut trees and tropical gardens.
There’s only a handful of other guests about so we have the run of the place. We spend our days alternating between surfing the righthander out the front, laptop sessions and ping pong tournaments.
The righthander is about as fun as it gets. It’s reached via a 200 metre paddle across the lagoon. When the swells arrive they stand up abruptly on the shallow reef before plunging and rifling down the line.
Paddling into one is like loading yourself into a sling shot. Position yourself in the apex of the swell, get to your feet and go racing through peak and out onto wall to pull a cutback or hit the lip.
And then paddle back out and repeat.
