The question that has been on the minds of the us newly-arrived Hainan surfers is - How long will the season last? And the answer so far is - Not yet. There is another northeast swell on the way, set to arrive Tuesday and last throughout the week.
The weather in Haikou has been gorgeous the past few days, and has been well conducive to enjoying one's unemployment. I bought three more shortbaords yesterday, increasing my quiver size to a total of seven. Pretty respectable.
