The surfEXPLORE Podcast, Episode 18 MYANMAR

In this travel narrative, a group of explorers ventures into the remote regions of Myanmar to discover unmapped surfing locations during the dry season. Despite the country’s lack of infrastructure and strict legal prohibitions against foreign visitors on certain islands, the team successfully reaches Cheduba Island by boat. Their expedition is made possible through the intervention of a local official, known as "The Major," who bypasses bureaucratic restrictions to act as their sponsor. By immersing themselves in the local culture and utilizing traditional fishing vessels, the surfers eventually find high-quality waves that highlight the untapped potential of the coastline.
