Surf in France
Surfing in France and Spa in Grundsund
Personal, 090727


Vacation. Anna and I took a train down to Saint-Jean-de-Luz where we met up with Albert and friends. We rented this great apartment with paintings covering just about every inch of the walls. Beautiful music could be heard, played by a street orchestra by the harbor. The idyllic town had their own local market where we could buy fish, vegetables and bread. Really friendly people too.

The reason Albert had chosen this particular part of France as our destination, was the close proximity to Hendaye where we went surfing. Hendaye has this five star surf-beginners beach and a lot of schools. We picked one where they had an English speaking instructor and stumbled into the white foam. Having tried surfing once before, I had thought I would never be able to stand up on a surf board. But as it tuned out, is was pretty simple. The dude helping us was really good and after a few hours I managed to take my first wave paddling. Perhaps the beach was a little crowded, but we had a lot of fun.

Back in Sweden we went on a road-trip to Skövde and Grundsund. That was also great. If you ever get to Grundsund, then check out the Spa. They had the best sauna ever.

Now I am back in Malmö, Sweden. Final day of the vacation and I am spending it unpacking my tent and stuff.
