    My first trip to Lombok was in 1982...pumping outside Ekas and outside Gerupuk...did not encounter any other surfers during our 2 weeks...dirt roads and only accom in Kuta was Anda..it was totally raw back then..an unforgettable trip.

    My experience is, from at least May to late November Lombok surf coast, ie the south coast, cops onshore winds prevailing from the South East from dawn to dusk. This pretty much means 75% of the quality spots are taken out. Its not just a bit onshore, the winds absolutely blows hard, Leaving you with 3 maybe 4 decent spots to share amongst intermediate and advanced surfers. It’s manageable at the moment because numbers are generally low and picking the right tide for many surfers seems to be a challenge. Most spots in Lombok are very tide dependent as well as wind dependent.That being said, it will only be a matter of time, as Kuta and Lombok in general becomes the overflow of Bali and Kuta is developing fast, that Lombok wont be a great option in years to come. The reason Bali is a better option even though it’s absolutely packed with surfers is A. it has a ton of beach breaks, Lomb9k has NO beach breaks at all. B. the wind on the South West coast all the way out to the Bukit tend to be offshore from early to at least mid day from Feb to Nov and even randomly through wet season, C. Access from Bali West coast to East coast is a pretty short ride which means you can always find a wave magnet with offshore winds. D. Lombok wet season can be a challenge due to rain and landslides and a lot of quality spots can only be accessed by muddy dirt tracks which are a challenge in dry season let alone wet season. Walk around Kuta and you’ll find a shit load of ppl with bandaged legs and arms because they are not experienced bike riders and fall easily on Lomboks dangerous roads. The roads look safe but have pockets of gravel on them which catch ppl out.

    Just spent a month in lombok fell in love with the place fun waves every day and met awesome travellers
    There is crowds but also waves without crowds that are harder to surf
    Loved it
    Try and get to mawi in the afternoons on low tide it’s so sick. Scored heaps of afternoons by myself 3ft rights love it

    FYI, the a-frame wave you describe as Insides wasn’t insides. It’s a wave called Don Dons 3:28 which requires a bit more swell than insides to work properly. Insides is another 5 min boat ride further to the east of Don Dons and works on smaller swells too. Great video!

    Spent a couple of weeks in Kuta nearly 20 years ago. It wasnt long after the Bali bombings and tourists were slowly trickling back to Indo, so Kuta was a fairly chilled place and line ups were light. it looks more built-up now as you would expect but seems it's kept it's laid back vibe which im stoked about! Some memories include locals enforcing payment to surf Mawi, carrying machette knives and various other weapons! A close encounter with a swordfish at Gerupuk, a 5 hour drive to Desert point and scoring the best barrels of my life. Hope you get that opportunity.

    Good vid. Thanks. A lot of the longboarders from here in Thailand hit Lombok and I was always curious about it. Yo man something I would enjoy seeing is a vid on spots in indo or wherever really where you can just be sedentary and surf right out from your hotel for an entire trip. I guess canggu would be a good candidate for example, but I’d be curious on your take of what spots, especially in indo, tend to stay very consistent.

In wet season, there can be a lot of rain, but normally this is in the afternoon or night so mornings will normally be sunny! You'll definitely be able to buy/rent boards in Kuta, there's a fair few surf shops!!

      Hey Josh! Hope you're well mate. It's not a secret spot, and Kuta Lombok is one of the most crowded surf spots I've ever been to. I'm also just paraphrasing what's on Google so not advertising anymore than what's already out there. The waves are pretty b-grade and if I tell everyone it's crowded, maybe less people will go, resulting in less crowds haha...

      Internet is making surfing worse. There was a time where you had to research it yourself. Now it is youtubers who don't want a real job informing the world where to go. @@DanHarmon123

    Just be aware that much of the area is locked down by 'Gate Keepers'
    Basically locals that charge you to go down 'their road'.... money for nothing basically.

    kinda turned off kuta lombok.. their island had really poor sewage system and id always see turds of poo when I was getting onto the fishing boat that would take us out to the break. .. Maybe its improved since... It was kinda lonely too.
