Don-Don surf guide

Don-Don is a surf spot located in a scenic bay, known for its unique setup in front of semi-submerged wooden fishing frames. Once the tide moves in a few hours, it gets ready for action. It's popular, so be prepared for a crowd; you’ll find surfers of all skill levels out there. If you’re looking for a chill session, this might be a spot to check out.

The breaks at Don-Don work best with a south swell, but southeast and southwest swells are also suitable. It can handle swells around 2 feet (about 0.6 meters). The waves are mostly reef breaks, with some nice lefts and rights that beginners can enjoy. The ride is pretty easy, offering a non-abrupt glide into reliable walls, though the lefts tend to be a bit faster. Just keep an eye on the crowd, as it can get busy, especially with newer surfers in the mix.

For the best conditions, aim for mid to high tide, and a north wind will give you smoother rides. Don-Don is a solid place for those starting out and wanting to get some practice in without too much difficulty.
