Good morning Cherating and good day for all!!

It seems as if we are going towards the end of Monsoon here in Malaysia. It was not a bad season at all. Late November and December were really consistent, with lots of swell….and also the Quiksilver Batu Buruk Surf competition in Kuala Terengganu and afterwards the Billabong Cherating Competition were successful. At the moment it’s flat in Cherating.
Four weeks we were away from Cherating, travelling to Thailand and spending some time in KL and it’s enough now.  Good to be back here again and enjoying the laid back Cherating. Nice to have our normal Cherating breakfast at Matahari Guest house…..Sheila’s Place….with good fresh coffee beans…..sedaaaap!!!

In these few day’s was good fishing at Cherating river.Went out few days a go and had few fish….we might go out to the sea fishing also in these few days…..

A medium size Barramundi at cherating river…1.8kg and 1.4kg

Here for the next few days forecast…..

Hi again, it has been flat since one week. That’s the longest waiting period in this season so far. The Chinese New Year celebration brought lots of visitors to Cherating, Pahang Malaysia. Lucky there has been small waves, so the conditions were good for giving some surf lessons and for all the beginners that never tried surfing before. We had 8 persons from Singapore that took our Surf lessons on Monday. It was a really sunny and hot day and fun waves out there. Every one had a good time  and enjoyed the session.

It has been a good swell from Christmas til the New Year’s weekend. On new year we had fun with 6 guys from Kuala Lumpur who booked 3 surf lessons with cheratingpoint over the weekend. All of them were enjoying their time and had their first successful moments on the board. The conditions were pretty good for beginners during these days, so that helped also a lot to make it a special and unforgettable experience for them. Beside that we had a really good gathering in the evening with them and started into the new year together…
