Question 5

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT IS RAINING?

Accepted Answer

We always hope for the best surfing weather possible, however safety is of the utmost importance. We can’t expect the weather to be always picture perfect, but as long as the conditions are safe we will surf! We use the most updated accurate swell and weather trackers to determine the surfing conditions for each day. We will only call it a ‘rain day’ if the surf or weather is unsafe, which means if it is only raining (as in no lightning or thunder), we will still surf (you’ll be getting wet anyway!). However, if we determine that weather conditions are unsafe, we will call it a ‘rain day’ and take the campers on a trip or do an indoor activity or sport.
