The Surfspots
Lagundri Bay is a surfer's paradise, offering a variety of waves to suit every skill level. Let's explore the two main breaks:
Lagundri - The Point
This legendary right-hander is a surfer's dream, famous for it's perfect barrels, attracting surfers worldwide. But don't be discouraged! The off-season (November to March) brings smaller waves, making The Point a fantastic training ground for maneuvers, turns, and longboarding. Even during this time, the inside section offers consistently rideable waves.
​
One of the biggest advantages of Lagundri, The Point, is its consistency. It's known as one of the most reliable surf breaks in the world, generating waves 365 days a year and remaining surfable at all tides. The deep water adds another layer of safety, making this reef break enjoyable even for less experienced surfers during the off-season.
Lagundri - Beachbreak
Lagundri Beachbreak is a perfect learner's wave tucked inside the famous Lagundri Bay . Just a 2 minutes bike ride from us, this beach break offers ideal conditions for beginners. Gentle rolling righthanders peel down the beach, making it a great spot to practice your pop-up and ride the wave all the way to the shore.
While experienced surfers may find bigger thrills elsewhere, Lagundri Beachbreak is the ideal stepping stone for those wanting to experience the joy of catching their first waves in Nias!
During high season (April - October) when The Point is pumping, this beach break is also the perfect alternative for surfers for whom the waves at The Point are too heavy.
