Meat Pai
Edit SpotAbout
The island are very unpopulated, just a few huts and local fisherman. I dont know of any surf charters for this area but at the right time of year the potential for discovering unsurfed breaks is phenomenal. It has to be one of the least explored surf regions in Indonesia, however unless you have your own boat I don't know how your gonna get here.. Good luck!
Atmosphere:
The water is pristine and 30 degrees. Being so close to the equator there is little wind to deal with but we found early was the best and the tide mid to high. Local fisherman wave at us and look upon us with wonder.
Additional Info:
Anchored in a nearby bay, we took a small jet boat exploring and discovered this left hander breaking off the end of the reef. We have the feeling that nobody has ever surfed here before. Discovered by Hemisphere Crew Gavin Foxall, Arturo Bonomo and Adam Bartley Smith
