Suicide Surf Spot Guide — Sumatra Islands, Indonesia

Suicide is a shallow, square left breaking over a coral shelf in the channel from Ariks, best on SW–W swells with SE winds. Higher tides and bigger waves improve makeability, but this is strictly for advanced surfers due to the shallow reef. Nearby, the left called Twiggies offers another challenging alternative.

Shallow square left where the coral shelf demands respect and timing.
