Surfing at this place? - Hi everybody at this beach
I am working in China and miss the beach (home beach Mallacoota Australia - check it out) Want to hang out somewhere nice and score some waves. So, need a reasonable surfbreak, a cool little hotel nearby and and that's about it. Anything around Jia Le Shui like that? Hope it's pumping & thanks - Gaz
