Thankyou for your help.
I intend to do 5 days searching in in Samar and spend the rest of my holiday in and around AC.
If Zambales is that close i will get a driver to take me there.
Do you know of any resorts or hotels that are surfer friendly or close to the waves ?
Have you surfed in Zambales ? i am happy with fun beach breaks, but would love to score some cranking left hand pits. I will just be happy to be back in the Filippines, it is such a beautiful place and the people are fun.
today at my beach i scored head high left & right bombs. there was plenty of waves. but when it's on here so are the crowds & the aggro. luckily the cold weather keeps the crowd in the hundreds and not in the thousands.
bye wink wink shocked

Cranking left hand pits may be hard to find but Agnes is right you are better trying Daet if you want some waves. You havent given yourself much time to explore Samar so good luck.
