hello everybody!!!!
i'm planning a surf trip to raiatea in the french polynesia for august
and i would like to know what is the best way to stay there , some friends told me that the best way is to rent a boat and camp in the small islands close to the spots , it seems that many surfers do that , i don't have any idea about how to make it i mean once there cose the surf ther is impossible without a boat , so i would like to have the advice of people that know there or have some precious information for me about this destination thx alot ;)
