Surfing In Jamaica

I have been surfing for a number of years now and have surfed in many parts of the world. Yes, you may say I really love surfing. Recently I decided to try out somewhere that is new or relatively new for surfing. I saw a YouTube video of a very small surfing competition that took place in Jamaica and decided to go there to see what it was like.

Now I had never been to Jamaica before and all I really knew about the country was that it was an island in the Caribbean, and that they had the fastest man in the world over 100m. So when I landed it was sunshine and more sunshine, yes it was hotter than I was used to but I kind of liked it.

Now let me clear, there are Waves in Jamaica. Basically from what some other surfer I met there have told me, there are waves all year round. I was at Boston Bay and the waves were pretty good. There were no board shop there but you can rent one for up to $20.

Another great location for surfing is Bully Bay and this is where you will find the Jamnesia Surf club. This is where you will likely find the president of the Jamaica Surfing Association, Billy Mystic. Billy was more than helpful and his family was also wonderful. The beach at Bully Bay is clean and not crowded, there was a guy there selling some art, it was not as good as the work of Sarah Jane Szikora, and the waves are really good.

Jamaica is really a great place to go surfing and the food is also as tasty as you would expect.
