surfers found their perfect wave
I spent 2 weeks researching surf spots in Bali. Then I found Gate to Surf and had everything figured out in 20 minutes.
Finally someone explains waves without jargon. I actually understand when to go now.
Booked my first surf school in Taghazout. The guide made it so easy to compare options.
