North Korea’s Newest Tourism Venture, Surfing Tours

Calling all surfers, if you are looking for place to surf poor waves, with no Internet access, and the threat of detention & torture, the Kim regime has a deal for you.  An added benefit is that all proceeds of this assuredly outrageously overpriced tour go towards maintaining a nuclear weapons program to threaten the world with, maintaining of gulags, and expensive luxury items for regime elite:

If you love surfing, North Korea’s East Sea coast could be your next destination.

Although the waves are not very high in July and August, there are some regions where you can enjoy surfing, according to North Korean propaganda media DPRK Today’s Sunday report.

A surfing tour of North Korea’s East Sea has been hosting many tourists from around the world. The tour includes a week of surfing, plus sightseeing trips to Pyongyang, Mount Myohyang, Gaeseong and other major tourist destinations.

For those who have a high level of surfing skills, October-November is a better choice, the report said. But sea temperatures are much cooler.  [Korea Times]
