What's Your Next Surf Trip Going to Be?

Or, you could stay where it's good surf 90% more of the time instead of driving around looking. Buxton has the surf. Frisco/hatteras not even close.

You're on vacation to surf. The best surf is right in front of you. Look out the window. There's waves.
You surf. Stay elsewhere, go drive around missing it.
You're on vacation.
I am friends with the locals. They surf buxton, unless...
But mostly they get pissed off when you mention the southside. They call it noside.
Fickle as it gets.
But i have had great waves down there...
When buxton isn't good.

 

what are you disagreeing with? That there is not much difference? Yea, Buxton’s surf is more consistent. Hatteras Village is still a cool place to stay.

CyC is staying in Hatteras Village with his family, he is not staying in Buxton. Not sure why you staying in Buxton 23 times helped with his question. I bet he already knew that the surf conditions are typically better on Buxton side.

The issue was the #dolt reserved a place in Hatteras Village and he was wondering about it. I wasn’t trying to piss on his parade...

 

Ok. Sorry. I do love hatteras village. And frisco. Just figured he maybe could cancel and re-book.

 

No worries, if that is an option (availability, budget etc), then I would probably stay there too...

 

Thanks. And you nailed it for him on the chill factor. Burrus red&white, sonny's, south point tower, izzy inlet, in front of the cabanas...i love surfing at the bathhouse.

A lot of waves.

 

Thanks for the info and opinions gents. There's a place in Buxton where I've stayed many times in the past and wanted to stay there this year again. But #dolt jumped the gun on me because she saw a place with a pool. She didn't know the friggin difference between Buxton and Hatteras Village in terms of beach direction, even though she's also been to Buxton quite a bit. She's never done propre sand reconnoitering. #dolt will pay for this slip up.

 

#DoltWillPay

 

If we cancel we eat the 200 dorrar deposit. I'll prolly PM you two in regards to local eatery/drinkery establishments as we get closer to departure in August. I've never been South of Angelos pizza on the island. Never felt the need to. I always found what I needed from the old lighthouse parking lot all the way up to S turns.

 

I'm open to suggestions in regards to how #dolt should be reprimanded.

 

That is the beauty of OBX. Depending on swell and wind direction you got options that are a short drive away.

 

That deserves its own threade.
Make it happen Cy?

 

I repeat myself, sorry. The guy i know from ocock says they occasionally get surf, but he spends all his time ferrying over to surf, you guessed it, buxton, and the guys i know from the southside are all surfing, repeat, and the guys i know from buxton have never even been to ocock.

So if you want to do the family chill thing, yeah, frisco, hatteras village are absolutely beautiful and have some good surf, and ocock, too, but that place is an overrun ugly nightmare in midsummer.

Now all that being said, you can get big swell where hatteras village is the best option, or prevailing sw swells, too, and end up scoring out front the entire trip, because those two scenarios can be frequent down there that time of year, and that's what i'd be hoping for.

 

I can't help but think that if she's put up with you all these years she must be a good Ol' Lady and deserving of leniency.
If I am incorrect I recommend the tried and true punch in the face for the #dolt

 

Yeah, I kinda sorta owe her my life. Maybe a swift back hand at half speed? Or a titty punch?

 

$200 cancellation fee would hurt. Lighthouse view motel has a pool and a hot tub.

 

The error wasn't *that* severe, you're still going to Hatteras dude

I was thinking more along the lines of having the #dolt being home another #dolt for the weekend.

that'll learn her

 

Do I join in or act like a 'cuck in the closet"?

 

I'm not the watching kind, but to it's his own i guess
