surfing in Japan |

Imagine : 4 big islands and 3 300 smaller islands just in the Pacific. Yes , Japan is an underrated country for surfing. Typhoons season sends beautiful swells from June until October. The real problem in Japan is that life is very expensive.
World class reef breaks aroun Okinawa.
