Benete.

Benete is a quality reef break located on the southwest coast of Sumbawa, Indonesia, featuring a classic left-hander that breaks over a shallow coral shelf beneath cliffs. The waves run from the peak to the close-out section, offering fast and powerful rides best suited for confident surfers. The spot is highly inconsistent due to its exposure and wind conditions, working safely only at high tide when E-SE winds are offshore. The bay is deep and protected, and the reef can be shallow at low tide, so timing and experience are important. Located about 5km from Benete port, access is relatively straightforward but there are no facilities or parking available. Despite nearby commercial and residential activity affecting the environment, the area remains quiet and less crowded than other Sumbawa spots, with local fishermen and uncrowded lineups adding to its authentic vibe.
