Surf spot guide · Java, Indonesia
One Palm Point is a legendary, remote left-hand reef break on Panaitan Island famous for its long, hollow barrels over a shallow reef.
One Palm Point, located on the southwestern tip of Java on Panaitan Island within Ujung Kulon National Park, is famed for its world-class, powerful left-hand barrels. The wave breaks over a sharp, shallow reef and offers long, hollow rides that can extend for hundreds of meters, making it best suited for experienced surfers seeking challenging, fast-moving waves with critical drops. Swells from the south to southwest light up the spot, especially during the dry season between April and October. Access is remote and exclusively by boat charter, requiring surfers to be self-sufficient and cautious due to the lack of emergency services. Hazards include strong currents, razor-sharp reef, and heavy waves. The vibe remains raw and uncrowded thanks to the spot's isolation.
Hollow barrels over razor reef that demands respect from every drop.
