If you’re dreaming of warm water, consistent swell, and unforgettable surf culture, these two destinations deserve a spot on your summer radar:

🇲🇽 Sayulita, Nayarit
Sayulita is a vibrant surf town known for its friendly, consistent right-hand point break that’s perfect for longboarding and cruisy fun. The wave breaks over a cobblestone bottom and typically offers long, workable rides ideal for beginners through intermediates, while nearby breaks like La Lancha offer punchier options. Off the water, Sayulita is packed with colorful streets, lively beach bars, taco stands, yoga studios, and a laid-back bohemian vibe that makes it just as fun to explore as it is to surf.

🚗 Baja Norte – Las Gaviotas, Rosarito Beach & K38
Just a short drive across the border, Baja Norte delivers consistent, high-quality surf with a classic Baja feel. K38 offers one of the most reliable right-hand reef breaks in the region with long, performance-friendly walls. Nearby, Las Gaviotas serves up a clean, rippable reef break within a charming gated surf community. Rosarito Beach adds a mix of beachbreak peaks and lively local culture with great seafood, oceanfront cantinas, and easy access for quick strike surf missions without the need for flights.

Or are you seeking a non-surf destination?

🇺🇸 Alaska – Wilderness Hiking & Adventure
Experience the raw beauty of Alaska on a rugged 7-day outdoor adventure that blends breathtaking wilderness with active exploration. Centered around Anchorage, Denali, and Seward, this trip features challenging hikes through Denali’s wild trails, towering views from the Harding Icefield and Exit Glacier, and a Kenai Fjords wildlife cruise where you may spot whales, sea otters, and calving glaciers. You’ll camp under the midnight sun, help set up camp and prepare meals with your group, and immerse yourself in America’s last frontier
