We take you and your friends on a classic surf trip aboard the 22 metre vessel Dreamweaver. Originally an ourigger style boat, Dreamweaver has undergone major renovations and improvements, and we have removed the outriggers entirely. This enables us to handle rough conditions better than any outrigger equipped boat, it also makes us faster and safer than ever before, and also cuts our travelling time by up to 36 hours per trip. You will surf Nusa Lembongan, Desert Point, Scar Reef, Super Sucks, YoYo's, and you will be aboard the only boat capable of surfing all those uncrowded secret spots along the South Lombok coast, where none of the other boats can go, there is a huge selection of rights and lefts along this stretch of coastline and no crowds (scroll down for more info on the waves and places you will surf with us, and check out our photo gallery to see what you will be missing if you travel on any other boat). Dreamweaver sleeps up to 14 guests comfortably in large bunk style beds. There is ample storage space for packs and surfboards, a large, covered, open air dining / chilling out area, and two air conditioned lounge areas, and sleeping area below deck.

WAVES ENCOUNTERED DURING YOUR TRIP
The Islands of Lombok & Sumbawa are to the South East of Bali and are home to some incredible set ups with Desert Point being rated by some as the best lefthander in the world.
SHIPWRECKS: The most famous and most surfed of all the waves on Nusa Lembongan, this right produces a good wall for maneuvers and, depending on the tide, good tubes. Best at medium tide with a 4 to 6 foot swell, but can get bigger on a good day.
LACERATIONS: A powerful and very hollow right hander that can produce some of the best barrels around if the swell direction is right. Best at medium tide with swell of 3 to 8 feet.
PLAYGROUNDS: A right and a left with a soft coral bottom, that are very easy and fun to surf, being the favorites of inexperienced surfers. Best with medium swell (4 to 6 foot) and medium or high tide.
DESERT POINT: A long walled and incredibly hollow left hander that on its day can break up to 300 meters, growing in size from takeoff to end. Has been called the best left hander in the world, if you get it when its on you will never forget it! Best between 3-8 ft.
BELONGAS BAY: This is a fairly typical Indo reef break. Nice and consistent with powerful long rides when the swell picks up. Sensitive to winds. It's better during the raining season with NE winds.
Two main peaks:
The right: good peaky right on the west side. Can be powerful.
The left: at the east side of the bay. Doesnt always work, but very good when its on.
AIR GULING: 2 breaks - a hollow shifty left, best at mid to high tide. A nice right with a fast inside section, best at low to midtide Has reasonable protection from the wind.
GERUPUK: This is a huge bay about 7 km east of Kuta, and on a big day it offers a few different breaks around the bay. It can handle any winds as its protected and surrounded by hills Inside Gerupuk or Bumbang Bay, a right-hander,a fun wave suitable for all levels of ability breaking over flat reef or sand bottom. The big days of southwest swell can be a great time to surf it. This break is surf-able at any time of year, best on the incoming tide Gerupuk Outside or Gili Golong, a right-hander, good at mid to high tide. A huge wave and big take off at the point, then a long ride when you get to the inside section, which can be fast and hollow. Up to a maximum of 10 foot. Don-Don, A right and left hand peak suitable for all abilities, can be a real fun break especially on a bigger swell, best on an outgoing tide. Pelawangan, another right-hander for beginners, only on big days, it can get very hollow on the right tide.
EKAS BAY: Is located on the east side of Kuta. A reef break, it has two spots. Outside Ekas, a good left-hander close to the entrance of the channel that can break for up to 200 meters on the right day. Inside Ekas, its a fun peaky wave, A left and right hander, works with a bigger swell, the left from mid to high tide and the right from mid to low tide, hollow and barreling on inside section.Can get very good when the winds are light, maximum 8 foot.
SCAR REEF: A long walled left peak where you drive into several backdoor sections all offering tube rides to write home about. Best between 2-10ft. There is also a smaller right hander on the inside reef on the bigger days.
SUPER SUCKS: Has been called the longest most intense tube ever ridden. Breaking over a live coral reef, this wave reels faultlessly for 150 meters. Get pitted from takeoff to exit. No top turns here when its on! Best between 3-6 ft.
YO-YOs: Catches any swell. It consists of two rights, one a wedge peak breaking off a cliff face, the other a long walled right reef in the middle of the bay, usually surfed when everywhere else is small. Best between 2-6 ft but has been surfed at up to 12 ft and bigger.
We advise that you take out full travel and medical insurance. We take no responsibility, but take every step to ensure you have a safe surfing holiday. Booties, some light rubber and helmets are highly recommended as many spots break over reef. Also bring plenty of sun protection, spare wax, leg ropes, etc.
