Looking for any ideas for one week trip. Have to say that Zika is putting a damper on our usual stops of Baja and DR.

Thank you!

They have zika in Los Barriles Baja?? It's mostly a desert, I would be surprised if they even have a mosquito problem, except in hurricane season, which is over by November.

Baja is definitely on Zika list. But I agree that the dry climate probably helps out to keep it low.

What are the sport in Australia? Any tips, links, suggestions?

Thank you!

sasha, if you're seriously considering going to Australia for a windsurf vacation, you may want to post a question on the Australian windsurf forum at http://www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/General/.

I have never windsurfed in Australia, but it's on my bucket list. There are many great wave and flat water spots there. You can also check the sessions on the GPS Team Challenge to get an idea where you can sail fast.

Speaking of Seabreeze, here's a link to read, it's about another spot for January, New Caledonia.
