Surfing Holiday Paradise!

Other Family Vacation Options

First on your surfing holiday itinerary should be the amazing Cocoa Beach in Florida. The swells can serve up some pretty sweet surf but you have to be there at the right time. Go in summer and your surf trip might end up being a wash out, with you spending more time paddling about than you do riding. The winter months however will give you something different altogether. You can get swells of around 10ft in winter and the sets are a whole lot more reliable this time of year. The surf is some of the safest around and the area has a great party vibe going on. This makes it very popular with beginner surfers and people after a but of fun. Best surf is between November and March

Secondly, how about visiting the surf that started it all. Hawaii is well known for being a surf haven, and for good reason. There are waves here that are as tall as sky scrapers and as regular as day and night.  It’s so steeped in surfing history that you would not be blamed for grabbing some wetsuits and spending your whole time in the water, however also visiting historic sites, talking to locals about surfboards, or checking out the thousands of surfboards on sale is also recommended. Well, maybe not the whole of your time, you must save a little for the 20ft monsters at Oahu and the sheer beauty of the beaches and surf and Waimea and Ehukai. Pure Heaven

Last but not certainly not least, no American surf holiday would be complete without experiencing the “surf city” and land of board shorts, Huntington USA.The sun loves being in the sky here and top surfers flock like sheep whenever there are waves. There are surf competitions taking place all the time here and its a regular haunt for the big names of the sport.It can get a little on the busy side however, there were eleven million visitors last year. So if the bustling atmosphere isn’t your scene then come in winter to enjoy equally good riding conditions.

Which drink is the most popular in the world?

General Talk About Vacations

Many people argue about which drinks are the best and the most popular in the world. Beer is by far the biggest selling alcoholic drink the world, no doubt about it, it’s not wine! So now that I have cleared up that the Beer is the king of all the alcoholic drinks, why don’t we all just sit down and look at what the popular drinks are in different countries, I have picked some randoms. So let’s start somewhere random then move onto some larger places:

Cuba is the place of cocktails. The Cuban cocktail country, is ready to divulge to you one of its most amazing drinks, that we all love called the Cuba Libre. Cuba Libre, this is a very easy and quick drink to make up, with only three ingredients, mainly Rum and coke, with a slice of lime. People really do seem to like this simple and easy to prepare drink. There is also the Mojito, loved by many tourists, but also all over the world.

Egypt, this is our next stop. Egypt is obviously much larger than Cuba, and many more holiday makers head here. Holiday Makers, just can’t resist Stella in Egypt. And for everyone reading this, no it’s not the traditional Stella Artois. It is in fact a beer with a 4.5%abv which is quite high for a gentle tasting beer. It is actually owned by Heineken and is brewed in a brewery called Alaham Beverages.

America is the big one. Anything that comes to mind? Probably not what you would presume, but the fastest selling beer is a Budweiser beer, but not Bud. Its Budweiser light. This is the alcoholic drink that is great for one and only one reason, that it doesn’t get you drunk very quickly. In the United States the beer, Bud is the second biggest seller, whereas its smaller version is the larger seller.

So are you seeking for Egypt holidays, Cuba holidays or how about something a little more unique like Maldives holidays, where you can invent your own maybe more experimental cocktail?
