Ok when planning a surf trip what do you look for.
I will put mine up and the level out of 10 I look for asides from surfing as i figure obviously we are after good waves. N
Accommodation- 5/10 I like comfort but don't require luxury.
Fishing- 8/10 Always a good secondary option.
Diving-0/10
Swimming/Snorkelling- 8/10 Need alternative's between surf's/
Proximity to nightlife-0/10
Bar/Entertainment at accommodation on board-8/10 Good to have a fun social scene at night.
Other optional activities/water sports-5/10
Internet access-5/10
Food- 6/10
If you got anything else to had please do so.

-- 10/10
otherwise rmjob, I'm in total agreement with your calculations.

I wanna get tubed stupid, hang out with people who aren't hung up on keeping up with the joneses or have petit-bourgeois value systems, have a plentiful supply of cold beer handy and luxuriate in a culture with some connection to the natural world.
Get some big hook-ups in between swells.
Preferably not in close proximity to too many backpacking euros, aussie roosters or Brazilian packs.
Indo-Pacific, Mexico, Islands, south-western Australia, offshore east coast islands.

Re: What do you look for on a surf trip.
The drawcard wave an easy walk or paddle from accommodation. Ideally straight out the front and other options nearby.
Cheap accomodation and good cheap food (this can mean camping in Aus)
Not too crowded
Relaxed local atmosphere away from any major populous
Beautiful natural setting (although I am yet to see an un-developed coastline that doesn't meet that criteria)
The likelihood of dying from any of the above (wave, transport, food, crowds, locals) not too high.

I can think of 1/2 dozen sites south of Nowra. Although, of course, wave consistency is not guaranteed any more than it is in Sydney. And food is not Asia pricing, obviously.
Still, doesnt have quite as much appeal or 'street cred points' as some exotic clime.

I look for something like a high rise at Rainbow with Snapper going off at about 5 to 6 feet and no one out
Put your big boy pants on

You aren’t the room Yuke You are just a wonky cafe table with a missing rubber pad on the end of one leg.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.
