At the end of 2024 we dubbed Liam Turner as one of the most tubed in the previous 12 months. That title has become a recurring theme for him every year since. For starters, the Cornish goofy-foot is a wizard at dragging corn. Add in the fact he manages HTs Resort in the Ments, which means he has instant access to a number of world class wave, and you get possible the best work-life balance a tube hungry surfer could ask for.

Here’s what Liam told us about the gig back in 2024:

“During the summer of 2021 I was living in a tent for a few months, I was working four jobs lifeguarding, doing bar jobs and working as a chef. That following winter me and my partner went to Indo for six months and by the time the trip came to an end, we didn’t want to go home.”

“We’ve both worked in resorts before and we did a short stint surf guiding and teaching yoga in Simuelue before the job at HTs came up and now we’ve both been here two and a half years. Em does the reservations, bookings and is going to be doing the photography and I do a lot of the guest management stuff.”

Since we last spoke to Liam, he’s been doing more of the same – managing guests, getting tubed in his spare time and he’s just applying the finishing touches on a home that the couple have built for themselves.

Is working at a surf resort in Indo the best job in the world? We’ll let you be the judge – check out Liam’s latest edit ‘Sorted’, presented by Quiksilver, at the link above.
