Tara Does Surfing
by: Tracy Michelle Steele
Walking across the tarmac with my Billabong bag fit snugly on my back, my eyes squint in the tropical sun as I watch my two surfboards being loaded onto the 10-seater plane in front of me. I excitedly board the puddle jumper that will take me south
towards the Osa Peninsula with Tara and the rest of the Girls Gone Surfing crew.

Tara Angioletti, surf goddess extraordinaire, is the owner of Girls Gone Surfing— a company specializing in surf trips and lessons ESPECIALLY for women. She has partnered with Billabong Camps and created her company as a way to live out her dream of traveling to exotic locations and riding perfect waves.

The fact that her surf retreats are located in exclusive WARM water international locations with few or no crowds means unparalleled “face time” on the waves.
Girls Gone Surfing instructors are with you the entire time in the water- coaching, encouraging and helping you get the best wave of the set! The combination of these factors has allowed me to take my surfing to the next level in a fraction of the time than I could have done so at my regular spots back home.

Whether you're a first-timer just learning to surf or you've been surfing for years, Tara and the GGS crew are the surf gurus you've often dreamed of learning from- and more importantly the type of people you'd love to hang out with
and share life experiences.

Battling frigid waters, crowded peaks and finicky swells characteristic of many Nor Cal surf spots, I dreamed of going on a surf trip that would take me to warm, uncrowded waters.

Making the decision to go on a GGS retreat led to an unreal trip with a cool group of women in one of the most breathtaking spots on the planet.
Surfing warm, perfect waves from sunrise to sunset, taking naps in the hammocks and sharing daily adventures with a group of amazing women…It was much more than a perfect vacation- it was an unforgettable
life experience.

In fact, I’ve already signed up for a spot on the 125 ft yacht to the Maldives this September! The anticipation of this next trip gives me the motivation to keep pulling on my wetsuit and plunging into the cold waters of Northern
California. My advice- book your trip today.
