An amazing, isolated area. Beautiful scenery and friendly locals in the village. Every day in the monsoon there will be surf with a constant 1-2 knot onshore. However, usually clean and glassy.

Surfing Rakhyut - Very difficult to find this wave. I surfed it in april 1999. I saw dolphins so I wonder if sharks can be around this beautiful place...this paradise...
