Surfing Trip In Gerupuk

The Gerupuk Bay is offering five spots that work on slightly different tides, wind and swell directions, providing a range of waves for beginner to advanced surfers.

1. Gerupuk Inside Inside Gerupuk is a right-hand reef break with a long wall and a forgiving lip, suitable for all levels. The bottom is a soft reef bed which doesn’t cause much damage. It is sheltered from the surrounding hills, thus can deal with most wind. There is nearly always something to surf here with some lefts on smaller days. It is the most popular break in the Bay and therefore not uncrowded by any means. There is still the chance to have an uncrowded early morning surf, just catch a boat before sunrise. On big days, with the right conditions it can be great.

2. Kids Point Kidspoint is another right-hander with incoming tide being the best, suitable for all levels. It needs a very big swell to work, but when its firing it is fast, hollow and sometimes barrreling, so don’t let the name mislead you.

3. Don Don Don-Don is an easy A-frame with a forgiving takeoff and fun left and right shoulders, suitable for all levels. It is the furthest break inside the bay, and therefore needs the most swell to work. It is best at outgoing tide when the winds are light. If you are looking for heaps of fun, give Don-Don a try, definitely worth it.

Outside right Outside right is a solid right-hander which can get quite heavy, with big drops and a fast inside section. It is just a short boat ride from the village and good for intermediate surfers. It is not surfable at low tide and works best at high tide with 4-8ft.

5. Outside left Outside left is just across the bay opposite of Outside right. It is an inconsistent left-hander which can be great, suitable for experienced surfers.
