Surfing Clinic at La Union

SURFING Clinic at La Union

Surfing Season November to February

Surf in San Fernando is mainly situated around San Juan about 7 kilometers north of the city in a developing “Bario” (hamlet) picturesque Urbiztondo. Its the gateway to many uncrowded points and beach breaks still rarely surfed. A right hand reef point break that works at its best with a north producing swell and giving good quality waves on its best days, can hold up to 8 to 10ft. A beach break in the centre of the bay that offers good clean lefts and rights that work best on a low tide will hold up to 6 to 8ft a great fun wave but often crowded especially weekends. The left point often works in both ways depending on swell direction but is considered shallow by many and is less crowded, can be a 200 metre left hander when it works and a freight train right hander on the north swell.

Tides and Seasons

The tide here works on a 2 tide system per day 1 high and 1 low averaging just over 12 hours between

high and low thus creeping forward each day gradually, giving longer than normal surfing sessions on the right tide. The most consistent time of year starts around October and goes through to March with peak times around December and January which tends to be the more crowded time of year attracting surfers from all around the world.

“Ahi Ani’d Bayninan Tour 2009”

Dear Friends,

We invite you to join the villagers of Bayninan in Kiangan, Ifugao, to experience a rare performance of the Ifugao harvest ritual, a vanishing ceremony displaying the deep spirituality of the Ifugao people.

“AHI ANI”, the season for harvesting the golden grains of the traditional Ifugao rice, a time for the mumbaki to narrate the myth of the origin of the rice and offer animal sacrifices to the deities of agriculture.

Tribal drums will play in the background as ancient culture heroes of the Ifugaos are invoked in the chanting of the hudhud, the local epic internationally acclaimed both for its length and antiquity.

Feel the earth and get your feet muddied, join the harvest and indulge in the simplicity of rustic living. Take moderate sips of the Ifugao rice wine and fill your senses with the diverse scents of mud, sweet hay and the mountain air.

Join this tour and help save a world heritage, the Ifugao Rice Terraces…

Visits to the famous Banaue and Hapao rice terraces are also included in the itinerary.  The Ifugao rice terraces will be at its golden visage this time of the year.

Proceeds of the tour will directly go to the villagers of Bayninan for their community projects.

Thank you very much.

TEDDY B. BAGUILAT, JR.

Governor, Ifugao Province

Honorary Chairman, Save the Ifugao Terraces Movement (SITMo)
