On the inside of the point at Lagundri-Soraki, is a slow longboard type of wave that bends around into Kiddies Corner, where a few reforms and peaks spring up as well. They arent very good, but local kids surf them. The long slow point here also isnt a bad soft cutback style wave on the end of the main point, over about 100m.
The Bay of Plenty is aptly named. The outside left point, Ujung Lolok, starts breaking at 5ft and holds as big as it can get! It's a fast, hollow wrapping left point that requires a big board and even bigger balls.
Across the other side of the bay lies the gem of the bay, Gunturs. A right point break with two barreling sections that often link up. Since the April 2010 earthquake the reef has sunk IMPROVING the wave quality and now offering up 5 second barrels on the end section. A perfect indo wave, without the indo crowds. Often no boats in the bay and only one land camp.
In the middle there is a perfect macaroni's style left that needs big swell and it is protected from the wind. When sizable swell comes, it is the only spot in the banyaks to go if your not a hell-man. When those big swells hit it is a playful but barreling wave that I still think about in my dreams.
Long world class barreling wave. It's a perfect left. It requires the exactly opposite wind conditions of Bawa. If Bawa is blown out come here.
Located deep inside the bay, this wave has similar qualities to macaronis but on a smaller scale. This semi-long wave can be deceiving if not seen from the front. Mid to high tides and moderate to large swell needed to get it good. Breaks on a perfectly shaped semi circle reef and offers extremely playful walls and tubes. Great for intermediate surfers or experienced ones who want to let loose.
Breaks like Sunset in Oahu when it's over 8 ft. It sticks way out into the Indian Ocean so it picks up alot of swell. Alot of water moving and frequent clean up sets. It's an insane wave though if you get the right one. Check out Curren ripping this place on a fish in the old Rip Curl video.
Down the road from Ujung Bocur (near the main Road), this place only starts working when Ujung gets big, fun little reef where the Indonesion kids learn to surf
Fantastic left barrels. After the 2005 earthquake the reef was lifted about a metre, you can see the old rock jutting out of the water. We had a couple of casualties here, watch out that you do not get caught inside.
Wear booties if you are not sure! I wish I had after I kicked the reef getting on my board.
This is a good, long, and consistent point/reef break in Southern Sumatra, that has alternate barrel and wall sections, depending on swell size, tide and direction. It's offshore/sideshore in the main swell season (May-October). It's a bit like Uluwatu in Bali, with different sections and moods, but perhaps not quite as good. Works on all tides, but locals say probably best on lower tides and west swells, but it nearly always has some kind of wave, unless the swell is very small. Barrels on good days, especially near the top of the point, when the reef can get dangerous. There are also often fatter outside walls if you don't want to hit the reef, which can hold very big waves (10 feet +). Often gets bigger down the line, but may closeout in front of a big, peaky end section. There is another good left/right peak about 1 km further down the point but only when the swell is giant. There are other good waves in the area.
