Hi All,

I'm heading to Cocos Island in the school holidays with my family and was hoping to do a bit of surfing, probably at The Shack. The swell forecast at this stage is around 2.5m and I was curious to know what size the wave would be in terms of wave face at this swell? Might help me decide which boards to take. I was thinking just 2 short boards, my all rounder squash tail and either a smaller wave board, my rounded pin or just a backup all rounder.

I would appreciate any advice from anyone who has been before.

Cheers, Waz.

Thanks Bolgo. Very helpful.

Sounds like my 2 all rounders will do the job. Just in case the airline damages one.

Is the drift dive for scuba or snorkel?

The right is epic..... for two maybe three months of the year..........
expensive to get too

Some of the best fun I've ever had surfing was at Cocos.

Thought I would give a quick update to answer my original question.

2.5m swell was around shoulder to head high. There was a 4m day while I was there which was in the double overhead range.

Had a great time and will keep the stoke going for quite a while.

EPIC STUFF FROMA WHILE AGO
