This year I don't think I want to tough out the European winter. January and February are just too depressing, and there's usually not much going on with the girls. Do you have recommendations for a surfing town during this time? Here is what I'm looking for:
-Waves for a beginner (I surfed a bit a decade ago, but I'll have to start from scratch and so will need a surfing school for lessons and rentals)
-Warm water (I don't want to wear a wet suit)
-Good town vibes (I don't need hot girls but some kind of scene would be nice)
In the Americas, I've seen surfing in a couple cities:
-Huanchaco, Peru (Trujillo) - seemed like a nice town, but I didn't stay long
-Punte del Diablo, Uruguay - tiny town that was a joy to spend time in, but waves weren't great
-Punte del Este, Uruguay - better waves but during January/February, it turns into a somewhat lame see-and-be-seen destination for rich Brazilians and Argentines.
-Praia de Pipa, Brazil - excellent summer spots with surfing, though I didn't try it. Decent amount of girls travel through here.
Any other recommendations? I'm open to anywhere in the world.
A great resource for surfers is a website called "magic seaweed". http://es.magicseaweed.com/
I live in Bocas del Toro (Isla Colon to be specific), Panama, which is a big surfing spot. It's a pretty laid back second rate tourist town, but it has a lot of the amenities and comforts that Americans have come to expect while retaining a lot of the jungle atmosphere.
