Surfing Thailand and the Phuket Surfing Club in collaboration with the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is organising the “Phuket Surf Series 2018+ Khao Lak” that will run from June to October 2018.
This falls during the annual ‘Green’ or monsoon season in Thailand’s Southern Region, when swells from the Bay of Bengal are most consistent for both beach and reef breaks along the Andaman coast. Phuket is Thailand’s best surfing destination but is not yet on any of the international surfing tour circuits. Nonetheless, there are an estimated 300 Thai and foreign surfers in the region.
The “Phuket Surf Series 2018+ Khao Lak” will be held at Patong, Kamala, Kalim, and Surin Becahes in Phuket, as well as Pakarang Beach at Khao Lak, Phang-nga province, which will be the final event in the competition.
The Phuket Surf Series 2018+ Khao Lak will comprise six competitions during June to October 2018 as follows:
Pearl of the Andaman Surfing Championship 2018, 30 June to 1 July, 2018, at Patong Beach, Phuket, featuring four divisions: Short Board Man Open; Long Board Man Open; Short Board Women Open; and Long Board Women Open.
