Revel in a magestic array of superb natural attractions - unspoiled coral reefs, volcanic landscapes and unexplored turquoise cays as a back drop to your surfing safari . Straddling the equator, Indonesia is a tropical island paradise made up of 14,000 islands, many of which are noted as world-class surf destinations. The stunning natural wealth of this archipelago, even when considering its individual attractions, is enough to make most other surf spots green with envy. If you are looking for an idyllic tropical setting with great surfing right at your doorstep and unforgettable natural wonders, a trip to Indonesia is a must. Even though there is no way for this website to touch on all that Indonesia surfing has to offer, here is a brief glimpse at some of the highlights
There is truly something for everyone. Indonesia can rightfully boast of landscapes consisting of palm-fringed tropical islands, heavenly white-sand beaches, majestic wildernesses, towering mountains, an impressive chain of volcanoes and some of the world’s best surf spots.
The marvelously rich culture of Indonesia boasts a unique and remarkable assortment of cultural traditions, vibrant arts and many individual ethnic groups. The rugged mountainous terrain and the fact that the country is made up of many islands, many of which remained isolated from each other, resulted in groups of people with distinct traditions and an extraordinarily diverse differentiation of languages and cultures across the archipelago.
The islanders did not in fact become "Indonesians" until 1945, when a line was drawn to incorporate the former Dutch Est Indies, a group of islands bringing together an astonishingly varied collection of peoples.
Examples of this heterogeneous development can be seen in the fascinating temple complexes of Borobudur and Prambanam, or during a visit to Sumba, home to some of the most traditional cultures in East Indonesia, where you can see spectacular ikat and massive megalithic tombs. You can also visit centers of contemporary art and culture on Bali, or discover South Sulawesi and the area of Toraja, where elaborate funeral rites are a central part of their society. To experience a living example of Indonesia's rich culture, visit the Minangkabau region of West Sumutra, known for its architecture, and where music and dance thrive. Is it any surprise then that "Unity in diversity" is Indonesia's national motto.
This is only a brief glimpse at the country's charms! Indonesia still has many areas waiting to be discovered. Come join us in our explorations of the hundreds of untouched islands surrounded by enchanting coral reefs that await you!

Shipwrecks - Lembongan
Picks up the most swell of the main bay.
Breaks fast and right into a channel.
Barrels to be found along with clean up sets aplenty.
Long and rippable when lined up.
Best on a falling tide high to mid.
Gradual but not crazy rip that pulls you deep and beyond.
Handles a solid 5 feet, tends to close out with Razors on the other side of the channel when bigger.
Crystal clear water and a vibrant reef that can look a little too close for comfort on occasion!

Lacerations - Lembongan
A well know, consistant barrel breaking right, into the main channel through the reef of the main bay of Lembongan.
The name is drawn from the super shallow nature of this wave, exasabated by the crystal clear water over colourful reef, it can look like your inches away from losing some bark.
Take-off straight into a hollow cave when its firing with an end section locals use as a launching pad for their latest punts.
Smaller days this remains a fast and enjoyable wave.
No real rip to speak of and works best on a falling tide around mid.
Great for spectactors also as some permananet floating docks allow for a view all the way down the line from take-off.
Bring those lenses and tripods!

Playgrounds - Lembongan
A left breaking into the same channel as Lacerations.
Can hold a little more power than people give it credit for.
Essentially a long walling left waiting to be torn to pieces is where it picks up it's name.
Barrels from take-off abundant on the better days.
The floating docks also allow for grandstand viewing of the action.
Bit of a rip that takes you out past the peak due to the channel.
There is a right off the peak that is shorter and faster and can barrel also.

Desert Point - Lombok
One of the most famous left handers in the world. On its day perhaps the best?
When the correct swell direction is running barrels are endless.
A strong current requires constant paddling on the bigger days or next stop is the Antarctic!
On smaller days a nice fast wall suitable for not just the pros.

Sengiggi - Lombok
North west Lombok houses a quiet tourist town called Sengiggi. On large swells of the correct direction this little reef breaks with surprising quality. A fun left that can get quite bowley at lower tide.

Gili T - Gili Trawangan
Even further north and round the tip of NW Lombok are the Gili islands. The western two claim surfable waves, however only Gili T has proven itself over the last couple years. A fast and walling right.

Scar Reef - Sumbawa
An epic left set in a spectacular bay. Breaks into a deep channel that the boat can anchor in so that everyone gets a grandstand view.
Known for clean up sets that run through wide it can get heavy here.
With multiple sections you can get barrelled twice but be sure to not to pull out too late!
