Sheltered A-frame reef with committed left and right barrel sections.
Hiliduha/Dipi is a sheltered A-frame reef over submerged, dead coral. Both left and right sections produce steep, hollow barrels, with the left capable of extended tube rides. The break works from 3 to 3 m on low, mid, and high tides, with south swell preferred and northwest winds offshore. May through October is the prime season, but the unforgiving reef and committed takeoffs make it an advanced wave.
