Destination Insight
Where is popular to go bodyboarding?
Bodyboarding is enjoyed worldwide, particularly in destinations known for consistent waves and long sandy beaches. Popular locations include Hawaii, Portugal and Australias Gold Coast, where surf conditions suit riders of varying ability levels. Its also widely available at family-friendly coastal resorts, where sheltered beaches and lifeguarded zones make it accessible for beginners.
Many travellers take part casually during a beach holiday rather than as part of organised sessions.
Here's why bodyboarding travel insurance matters:
Bodyboarding takes place in open water, where factors such as wave strength, tides and seabed conditions can increase the risk of injury. Cuts from rocks, sprains, collisions with boards or being knocked over by waves are all possible, particularly in unfamiliar surf conditions. Having appropriate travel insurance in place helps protect you financially if you need medical treatment while abroad.
Helpful travel tips
- Even simple watersports benefit from sensible precautions, especially in changing sea conditions.
- Stay within designated or lifeguarded swimming areas whenever possible.
- Wear fins and a wetsuit where appropriate to improve control and protect against cold water.
- Avoid entering the water during strong surf or rip current warnings.
- Be mindful of your ability level and avoid pushing beyond your limits in unfamiliar conditions.
- Always follow the instructions provided by lifeguards or local authorities and adhere to any safety recommendations made, including wearing appropriate safety equipment.
