Guinea-Bissau Surf Guide

A Guinea-Bissau surf guide:
Guinea-Bissau has an awful story. An intense struggle for independence and a political situation that has never really calmed down. If you decide to go here, you will come back with a beautiful memory of the long white coastline, lush forests inland and of course, the very nice and welcoming people of Guinea-Bissau.

The Waves in Guinea-Bissau

There is no reported surfable breaks in Guinea-Bissau. If you want to be the first to go here GoSurfAfrica.com recommend that you have plenty of experience with surfing and travelling in Sub Saharan Africa.

According to the swell charts you should be able to find surfable waves here year round though the months from June through till August might not be as good as you have to depend on a SW swell.
