Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia, Caroline Islands

What a incredible season 2008/09 was!

The amount of good days with surf, mostly under perfect weather and wind conditions, are hard to number. Crowds were at a minimum and empty lineups due to the surfed-out crew were not unusual. For sure this was the best and most consistent season the Pohnpei Surf Club has experienced since its opening in 2004.

If that wasn’t enough, the fish bite was on! The Mahi Mahi run was epic. Never before had we seen so many of them and so easy to hook. We also had a record number of Marlin hooked and landed.

Everything else on the island remains beautiful and serene, and we here at the Pohnpei Surf Club are happy to be part of this adventure and to be able to share it with our guests.

Starting May, 2009, we’re fixing and upgrading our boats and facilities, and looking forward for those clean and glassy early season days.

Attention please:

Since January 2009 there has been a very high increase in demand for the flights from Cairns to Guam. During our mid and late 2009 season we were not able to get a single guest on this flight from Australia. The only surfers who made it here in time for the empty line ups were the ones who had booked a few months in advance.

Starting October 01, 2009, Continental Airlines will cut two flights a week on the Cairns/Guam route. We are expecting full flights and shortage of availability on the Cairns/Guam route (both ways) especially for last minute bookings.

Prices for booking your airfare from Australia or USA with less then two weeks prior to departure day can be up to 50% more expensive.
