The best place in the world to surf in November

Hey there,
My name is Lisa and I joined this site to find out where the best place to surf in November is. I am trying to plan my honeymoon, and we need a place to go where we can surf and maybe even get some lessons.

Hey. Fuerteventura, canary islands is a go, surf season is october to March for the big waves. Plenty of different spots to try, board hire avaliable but bring your own for maximum enjoyment. weather in the 80´s so great for celebreating & surfing. You can hire a car when you get here so look for Atlantis palace hotel for good 5 star & be near the surf spots! have fun x quicksilver have a surf school here, & there are other local shops who offer courses also, very friendly.

Unfortunately November is the worst month of the year in my two favorite "islands" - Bali and Australia. How about North Shore Hawaii early season?

Now...if you need lessons it doesnt really matter where is the best place to surf in the world in november. You could go to Vancouver Island and get absolutly pampered there at the Wickanninish Inn, its right on the water with a superb view. They have i think 4 surf schools in this little town of Tofino and one for girls..the beaches and sceneries are pretty and many people go there for their honeymoon cuz its real nice.
But then again if you dont want the cold you can easily go to Waikiki in Hawaii and you'll have warm, easy waves, turquoise water and some lessons.

I have been here in the Dominican Republic now for a while, and we had some great swells and nice weather here in November last year.
A good place to stay is Ali's Surfing camp Cabarete Have fun

Why you pimpin' your island so hard? I thought the crowds and locals have gotten ugly enough?

Definitely Northern Hemisphere that time of year. If warmth isn't a requirement, I would go to Europe (and have been many times). France, Spain or Ireland - great waves, and lot's to do and experience even if the surf isn't good.
