You’ve not heard of Australia Day? Well, it’s just THE national holiday in beautiful Down Under. Every year on January, 26th, Australia commemorates the first landing of British settlers in Sydney a long, looong time ago. Basically, it’s Australia’s birthday, and the entire country celebrates it!

And how could they not? Australia, home of the Great Ocean Road, one of the most beautiful scenic, coastal roads in the world, the natural wonderland that is Daintree Rainforest, the 2.300 km-long, multi-colored Great Barrier Reef, the majestic Ayers Rock, the world’s largest sand island, Fraser Island, and, of course, one of the world’s most amazing surf spots, the one and only Byron Bay!

We’d like to join in the festivities by celebrating the latest addition to our partner camps, Surf Camp Australia! Just two hours south of Sydney, our fantastic surf camp on Australia’s East coast is located on the #1 surf spot in Australia for beginner surfers. Here, you’re staying in a beach-front surf camp, learn to surf from experienced instructors with the latest surf equipment, party at the famous Scubar, surf the great waves of Yamba and of the surfing mecca, Byron Bay!

And with Australia being only a stone’s throw away from Indonesia, how about another adventure surfing the amazing waves of Bali and her sister island Nusa Lembongan?! Our Bali Surf Trip offers the perfect mix of surfing and relaxing, adventurous and cultural explorations and more.

So in 2016, treat yourself to a bottle of Australian wine, a real Aussie BBQ, learn to throw a Boomerang or to play the Didgeridoo in Australia and speed boat, snorkel or wild-water raft your heart out, feed monkeys, discover ancient temples and experience the surf holiday of a lifetime!

Everything is possible in 2016, let’s make it happen!

Keep surfing, keep living!
