Parked in the North Indian Ocean, long range ground swells travel miles and unload in a tropical paradise full of amazing people, waves for all levels, palms and coconuts aplenty.
Indo has 2 seasons, wet and dry. Dry season has the most consistent winds and larger swells but don’t be fooled, if you know where to look there are amazing waves year round.
Sure wet season can be wet, but so can getting pitted in an uncrowded reef break with your mates. Off season can deliver amazing waves and we are as passionate about this time of year as any.
If you are an absolute charger then large dry season swells and heaving 8-10 footers at No-Kandui will be your dream. However, if you love hanging with your mates, sinking a few beers, and perfect shoulder to overhead points and reefs then do not count out the shoulder season.
Here’s a guide to the waves which you might get to surf during your trip. Our operators have years of experience and will do their best to ensure that you’re in the right place at the right time. If you’re lucky they might even let you in on some of their secret spots too!

Oh my gosh, where to even begin. Such an amazing crew manning the boat! The boys were on it with keeping the boat in tip-top shape, shuttling us back and forth from the boat to the lineup, taking thousands of photos, cooking amazing meals, taking us fishing, and just generally taking good care of us. And they were so stoked the whole time! Our surfguide was such a cool and mellow guy. He would share local knowledge with us about the individual breaks and then give us his opinion of where the best place to surf would be. He never steered us wrong, we scored epic surf almost every day of the trip and more often than not we were the first boat to arrive to any given break each morning. Not only did we get lucky with good weather and good waves while we were there, but we got the best boat crew too. Can’t wait to do it again.

We surfed by ourselves the majority of this trip. The Hole, Lances, Thunders, Maccas! Service and food were worth every penny! Our group will be coming back in 2014!! Best value in the Ments!
