A legendary left-hand reef point along the eastern shore of Grajagan Bay inside Alas Purwo National Park — a surf zone longer than a kilometre, not a single peak.
Conditions
Modelled swell, wind, tide, and a seven-day outlook. This is a forecast, not a live observation at the reef.
A legendary left-hand reef point along the eastern shore of Grajagan Bay inside Alas Purwo National Park — a surf zone longer than a kilometre, not a single peak. Sections run Kongs → Money Trees → Launching Pads → Speedies, with secondary options at Chickens, 20/20s, and Tiger Tracks. Camp-based, remote, and built for confident reef surfers.
Expert and advanced only. Kongs is the most approachable outer section for strong intermediates on the right day; Speedies is shallow, fast, and responsible for most serious reef injuries. Not a beginner destination.

Kongs is a gentler entry point.
Sections range from mellow Kongs to expert Speedies and Chickens.
Advanced · high confidence

Expert · high confidence
Heavy sections are expert-only.
