| Namotu Island |
It's difficult to overstate the near mythical status that the island of Tavarua holds in the surfing world. It's a place I've dreamed about seeing basically since I first started surfing and watched Pat O'Connell and Wingnut charge Cloudbreak in Endless Summer II.
For the last two weeks, we've been within dinghy distance of Tavarua, and I've been getting more consistent and more incredible surf than I've ever had in my life. There are a number of breaks in addition to Cloudbreak that are surprisingly manageable and picture perfect.
Loading up the boards, getting in the dinghy and seeing the iconic image of Tavarua getting closer gives me a feeling of stoke that hasn't worn off in the slightest in two weeks. I'm not sure it ever could.
I've got a few pictures, but the Tavarua resort website has better ones. Check out these amazing photos of the surf that we've got right next door.

Sorry we didn't get over to see you before we left Musket Cove. Could you email us the Lat/Long of where you anchored and dove while you were down in Kandavu?

Really enjoy following your blog. Read the previous entry about Plantation and wondered if you'd be surfing much. I had the chance to surf Tavi 4 years ago, lifetime experience, now looking forward to sailing there. Can't wait to see some/any pics.
