As the brainchild of local surfing champion Wilson “Saddam” Faraon, Surfskwela prides itself on not being your regular surf school. Boasting “the ultimate surfing experience with Baler’s best,” spending your weekend with Surfskwela goes beyond the usual afternoon of running through the dos and don’ts of trying not to fall off your board.
