If you’re craving a surf trip that actually helps you improve with waves that challenge you and coaching that empowers you, then a SWA retreat in South Sumatra, Indonesia might just be next on your list!
Located on the southwest coast of Sumatra, this zone is world-renowned for its consistent, quality waves that range from hollow beach breaks to long, peeling reef points. Think long left point breaks that keep you challenged yet frothing, plus a whole cornucopia of other options.
We’ll be staying out front of a world-class beach break with hollow rights and lefts, but also just a short drive away from a mellow right-reef break. No matter what the conditions are, we will find waves! We also will be going in the shoulder season, which means the waves won’t be too gnarly yet still plenty challenging and fun, and likely with fewer people in the lineup.
But here’s the ultimate piece: you don’t have to be thrown into hectic lineups with intimidating bros to get the most out of this place. Instead, picture a lineup filled with the ultimate girl gang to cheer you on and high-quality surf coaching to boot. This isn’t your typical surf camp where you’re left to fend for yourself in a crowded lineup. Surf With Amigas offers this Indonesia retreat as a high-level coaching experience designed for intermediate to advanced surfers who want to deepen their skills in a supportive, focused environment.
