Aloha HG,
Been to Kandui and it was the trip of a lifetime. Ray and crew are very good at what they do and know how to get you in the waves that you desire...4-bobs is right in front of the resort and is never death-defying. Funnest wave ever. Plenty of waves around to push the limits. If you can afford it..that is the resort to go to.
Pro's-
Staff-friendly and knowledgeable
Surf-something for all levels
cultural experience
FOOD-So good every meal was great..nothing to over the top, but great comfort food and variety. Lost 20 lbs on that trip surfing sooo much. (the kandui diet)
Cons:
Crowds- they are not the only game in town. Boats and resorts everywhere. If you get waves at your local you will get plenty of waves. 4-Bobs was only our group for most of the time.
Price- you pay for the ments experience
Waves- You never know when a swell will arive we scored, but the group before us got skunked. I went Right for the whole trip due to winds and swell direction. I am a goofy and really wanted to go frontside, but it wasn't meant to be.
Travel- Takes alot to get there and I enjoyed the experience, but it is exhausting and expensive.
Word of advise..If you see Ray getting in a boat..you make sure you are on that boat..Waves will be good. He knows his shat!
Many good turns to ya!
