Surfing in Lombok
Lombok is a 35-minute flight or fast-ferry from Bali, and arriving feels like rewinding the clock fifteen years. The south coast town of Kuta (no relation to Bali's Kuta) is the main base, with Gerupuk Bay a 10-minute drive away — a horseshoe-shaped bay with seven different breaks served by local fishermen who shuttle surfers out by boat. Selong Belanak, half an hour west, is one of the world's best beginner waves: a wide, sandy-bottom bay with long mellow walls that almost anyone can ride. The hard-charging crowd heads to Desert Point on the west coast, a long, hollow left that's one of the best waves on earth on its day. Costs are markedly lower than Bali, and the crowds at every break are a fraction of the size.
