Preparing To Surf In Russia

June 8, 2018

People flock to Kamchatka in Russia to surf every year. The best place to surf in Kamchatka is Khalaktyrsky beach because of its black volcanic sand and several monumental volcanoes in a background. The waves size can get up to 5.5 meters, and there are volcanic lava rocks in the bottom. The water temperature usually does not rise about 10 degrees Celsius; therefore, a wetsuit is highly recommended for surfing there.
