Locals keep offering to show us secret surf spots. Is this safe or a scam.

Simply smile politely and firmly decline their persistent offers for secret tours or local parties. They are usually just looking for an inflated cash tip for unwanted guidance but they will leave you alone if you show absolutely zero interest.

It is completely safe but heavily annoying. Never hand them money upfront for a promised party ticket. Stick to highly reputable established surf schools for lessons and guidance to guarantee a perfectly safe professional experience.
