Surfing in Sumbawa
Sumbawa is the next island east from Lombok, and most surfers never make it there — which is precisely the point. The Hu'u district on the south coast holds a cluster of five world-class breaks within a 20-minute drive of each other: Lakey Peak (a perfect A-frame), Lakey Pipe, Periscopes, Cobblestones, and Nungas. They sit roughly 50 metres offshore, work daily through the dry season, and the takeoff lineup rarely has more than ten people in it. The accommodation scene is small — a handful of surf camps and hotels right in front of the breaks — and the prices reflect the remoteness in both directions: cheap rooms, simple food, and a full day's travel from anywhere with an airport.
