Catch a wave with Fifty Places to Surf Before You Die,a beautifully illustrated guide to the most thrilling surfing destinations in the world.
Fifty Places to Surf takes readers on a wide-roving adventure, divulging the details that make each venue unique—and plenty of tips for those who aspire to surf there.
Author Chris Santella writes in his introduction, “Surfing means different things to different people. For some it might mean longboarding mellow chest-high waves in board shorts, followed by a great sushi dinner; for others it may mean donning a six-millimeter wetsuit to brave near-freezing waters and triple overheads. Fifty Places to Surf Before You Die attempts to capture the spectrum of surfing experiences—from beginner-friendly to downright death-defying.”
Covering famed surf spots all over the world, this unique full-color gift book and travel guide invites you to discover such unexpected gems as the Amazon and the Gulf of Alaska.

Title: Not What I Expected â Focuses Too Much on Popular Spots
Review: I was disappointed with this book, as it was recommended as a must-have for surfers. While it lists plenty of surf spots, it mainly focuses on the most popular ones like Malibu and Pipeline. If youâre looking for unique or less mainstream destinations, this isnât the book for you. Itâs also smaller and not particularly well-written. It might be nice to have in your collection, but if youâre on a budget, Iâd suggest looking elsewhere for better surf guides.
