Surf spot guide Β· Simeulue, Indonesia
Fast, hollow left over dead coral reef wrapping into a narrow channel on Simeulue's north coast.
A left-hander wrapping along an almost north-facing dead coral shelf, peeling into a narrow channel that doubles as the paddle-out route. Hollow, fast walls with barrel sections on the inside, powered by a steep vertical takeoff that demands commitment. Rides run 100-200m when sections connect, though the wave is less organized than neighboring Turtles and Alatat, sometimes sectioning rather than linking up cleanly. Fires on smaller SW swells in the 0.9-2.4m range, with SE winds grooming the face. Incoming tide tends to clean things up. The walk in follows the beach from the south, crossing a couple of streams before reaching thick jungle backing the break. No facilities, no boat needed, just willingness to push through. Rarely crowded because it is the less consistent option in a stretch of quality reef setups, so scoring it alone is the norm rather than the exception.
Hollow left wrapping dead coral, sectioning unpredictably where Turtles stays clean.

Rarely surfed. The inconsistent wall connection and tricky access keep most surfers at the better-known reefs nearby.
