Thank's for your excellent research. It's one of those sloppily written water sports scripts again. This time, the action does not take place in Australia, but in Kerala on the West Indian coast:
"Kerala has some of the South Western coast's most spectacular beaches. Life is calm and peaceful there, and the people are extremely laid-back and friendly./
W and X have joined up with Y and Z to pay a visit to **Wybine** Island which they've heard has a more interesting coastline./
Driving in India calls for a great deal of care and concentration. The streets are narrow and vehicles drive on the left.
Along the road, rice paddies alternate with prawn farms.
But at Cherai, the group is disappointed to find that, although there are some good waves, there is very little wind."
I googled "Cherai" and found the Wikipedia article on "Cherai Beach":

Here it says that "Charai" is part of "Vypin Island":

This is going to be a funny series... In contrast to Indian islands, Australian states and companies are quite well known by "my" authors.
