About

A real Indo-experience!!!!!!!!!!

Atmosphere:
This is a Mundaka (Spain) like rivermouth-break. When I surfed the spot it was about 4-6 ft feet and perfectly peeling left. The only 5 locals in Pancitan (there are no more surfers) begged me to tell everybody to come surf here. I had a blast with these guys in the water yelling each other into waves and screaming and laughing all the time. Felt like i was living the endless summer right at the spot! If you come do not forget to bring wax for these guys .... they surf on half broken boards with so little wax its amazing they even can snap the lip!!! For sure one of my best surfing experiences ever!!!!!!!!!!

Additional Info:
From Solo take (typical java) 6 hours busdrive south to Pacitan. Tell the busdriver to stop at the happy bay beach bungalows-entrance and walk your way (about 800 m) to the beach. This is the only accomodation near the beach. Everyone will notice, smile and waive to you when walking to the bungalows and probably in no time the 5 local indo's will appear in front of the bungalows to invite you to come surf!!! The locals told me there are some excellent reef-breaks and secret spots nearby. Didn't had the time to check it out.,,,,but they told me that if you would be surfing them naked nobody would even noticed it !!!
