Description
Surfing is a thing in Borneo. Surfing waves, that is, not surfing the Internet.
The surfing I’m talking about is the get-off-your-behind-and-go-get-wet kind of surfing. The kind of surfing you do standing up (or lying down, if you’re a bodyboarder) on a real surfboard down real waves.
Yes, waves. Truth be told the South China Sea isn’t exactly known for its wave action, but there are places near Kota Kinabalu where 1 – 3 foot swells are not uncommon, and up north, near Kudat and The Tip of Borneo, there are proper big-boy waves. In season.
Borneo probably isn’t a destination that comes to mind when people ponder where to go for surfing, and true, the scene is in its infancy.
