Lombok, the enchanting island neighbor of Bali in Indonesia, is quickly rising in popularity among surfers from around the world. Unlike Bali’s bustling beach scene, Surf Spot Lombok refers to a series of world-class surf spots scattered along the south and southwest coasts of the island, with hubs like Kuta Lombok, Gerupuk, Mawi, Selong Belanak, and Desert Point drawing both beginners and pros. Each beach offers a different kind of wave, vibe, and level of challenge, making Lombok a diverse and rewarding surfing destination.
Terima kasih telah membaca postingan ini, jangan lupa berlangganan!Surf Beach Lombok has it all, from soft sandy bays perfect for learning to reef breaks that challenge even seasoned surfers. The proximity to the equator ensures warm water year-round, and the relatively underdeveloped coastline provides an authentic, less commercialized experience.
Lombok has carved its name into the surfing map for its uncrowded waves, diverse surf breaks, and breathtaking natural beauty. While Bali’s Kuta Beach often feels overcrowded, Lombok offers wide-open lineups, clear water, and that perfect mix of laid-back surf culture and raw island charm.
It’s also home to Desert Point (Bangko Bangko), one of the most legendary left-hand barrels in the world. For beginners, gentle waves at Selong Belanak or Tanjung Aan provide the perfect playground. In short, whether you’re chasing epic barrels or just learning to stand up, Surf Spot Lombok delivers unforgettable waves.
The best time to surf in Lombok is during the dry season, from May to October, when the southern swells are consistent and offshore winds prevail. During these months, wave conditions are ideal, especially on the south coast. That said, Lombok also offers year-round surfing, and some beaches like Gerupuk work even in the wet season (November to April).
For beginner surfers, almost any time of year works as long as you choose the right beach. For pros chasing barrels, June to September is peak season for breaks like Desert Point.
From hubs like Kuta Lombok, you can easily join day surf trips to multiple beaches. Surf shops offer packages that include transportation, board rental, guides, and surf coaching.
Some surf operators offer liveaboard surf charters, taking you on a boat trip along Lombok’s southern and western coasts — ideal for chasing the perfect wave and exploring remote surf spots.
There’s a wide range of accommodation. You can book luxury surf resorts with infinity pools and wellness spas or stay in budget-friendly homestays with board rentals and local guides. Both often include lessons, gear, and meals.

Most surf trips are customizable, and even last-minute bookings are possible in tourist areas.

We had an absolutely incredible time on our private snorkeling tour of the 3 Gili Islands! From start to finish, everything was well-organized. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. We started off in Gili Trawangan, where the water was crystal-clear and full of colorful marine life. Next, we headed to Gili Meno, where we were amazed by the famous underwater statues and even spotted a few sea turtles swimming peacefully by. Finally, we explored the reefs around Gili Air, which were vibrant and teeming with fish. The boat was clean and spacious, and refreshments were provided, making it a truly comfortable experience.
