Surfing Rote Island: Complete Surf Guide

One of Indonesia's premier lefts, rivaling G-Land in quality. This long, barreling wave peels down a coral shelf with remarkable consistency throughout the dry season. Remote, uncrowded, and absolutely world-class.

A shorter, punchier left that handles bigger swells than T-Land. When it maxes out at other spots, Bo'a keeps working, offering hollow sections over a forgiving sand bottom.

The main bay in town with multiple peaks for all abilities. The inside offers mellow walls for learners while the outside reef serves up more serious juice when the swell builds.

A right-hander that offers a change of pace from Rote's predominantly left-breaking waves. Fun, workable walls with the occasional barrel section on bigger days.
