SURF SPOT IN EAST SUMBA

The office
point break-like lefthander is the most consistent wave here. Works on all tides except max high and breaks eventually onto sand. Miles of beach break from here.


Racetrack
A wedgy left that accelerates and builds in size down the line , truly lives up to its name.

Five-O
Good lefthand barrel breaking along bend of reef into the main channel. It needs a six-foot swell to start breaking and is surfed at higher or dead low tide.


Manggudu Island waves
The island sits on the edge of very deep water and the waves can get very big. The western tip has a left and eastern a righthander. The left is a swell magnet with the dry season trade winds blowing offshore. Consistent overhead surf, bring a gun.

the left
The reef is large and the wave is best described as "sunset-like". After peaking, it will bowl through hollow sections or just wall off right from the take-off, depending on swell direction. Can handle very big swell.

The Right
long wave that wraps all the way around the eastern tip of the island. Mellower wave than the left, but longer and hollower. Wet season wave, but you might get lucky on some mornings during the dry season before the winds come up.
