Pondichery
Edit SpotAbout
Funny aera if you are in aa surf trip in India. Better to search swell informations on the web before coming there...not to be disgusted because of no swell !
Atmosphere:
Fun aera to surf and discover an interesting part of India. Very hard (means impossible)to find swell or wind informations in town. No rental, no shops, no local surfers... so come preparated !!!
Additional Info:
Usually small waves. Alone on the beach. There is no rescue team,you are in India and surfing is not a famous sport (and they don t care about you !!) so keep vigilant if there is current or big waves. I don t really know if waves work all the year, but Septembre to January, it s sure.
