I'll be there from july-august. I've had people tell me to not worry about it till I'm there, and some tell me that the cheap places can fill up pretty quick. I'd love the freedom to just go where i want when I'm down there, but I'll be on a pretty tight budget and don't want to spend the money on more expensive digs if that's all that's available. Suggestions? And yes this is my first time down there (first real surf trip actually), and I'm nervous/excited as all hell.
