6. Lima, Peru
Peru has countless surfing spots along its 1,500 kilometers of the coastal beaches. Pick anywhere, and the waves will be there. But you should probably prioritize staying in Lima, the capital of Peru, as it’s the most civilized and comfortable place for tourists.
7. Indonesia, Bali
Among the places that could compete for the title of “Best Surfing Destinations in the World,” you will certainly find Bali. There are locations for beginners and experienced surfers; the water temperature in the ocean is at least 28 degrees, and the best part — no sharks. If you’re a beginner, try Kuta beach. For more experienced surfers, Balangan beach should tickle that fancy.
8. Sri Lanka, Indian Ocean coast
Weligama Beach in Sri Lanka is a great place to catch some of the low-mid waves. For more demanding surfers, there’s Hikkaduwa, and if you just want to go solo without everyone watching, there’s a place far from the crowded beaches called Arugam Bay.
9. The Maldives, Indian Ocean coast
Another contender for the title of the best place for surfers is the Maldives. But it’s only a viable option for those who are already experienced enough, due to the very powerful waves and the abundance of sharp underwater rocks that can mess you up in an instant.
