Baggy

Top choice


Forget your crammed-in beds and wetsuit-strewn dorms – this hostel and surf lodge is light, bright and enormously inviting. It has a fine coastal location, and rooms are lovely, with lots of wood and minimal clutter. There's also a surfy cafe with an outside deck where you can eat breakfast while watching the waves roll in.
