Most of Oceania consists of island nations composed of thousands of coral atolls and volcanic islands, with small human populations. This kind of geography makes for huge surfing opportunities.
Australia seems to dominate this region on the map due to its size - poor little New Zealand and Papua New Guinea!
The Pacific Islands with such tropical gems as Fiji and Tonga provide the ultimate settings for tropical waves. Go surfing in the crystal clear warm waters and watch the coral go shooting past beneath your feet. What a destination for a surf.
Waves in this region are generated from the Indian Ocean, the Tasman and the South Pacific Ocean.
