Frequently asked questions

What is Jukung?

Jukung is an ad-free noticeboard for surfers in Gerupuk Bay, Lombok. Surfers post the boat trips they're already taking out to the breaks, so others heading to the same spot can find them and share the ride.

How do I find a boat to surf Gerupuk Bay?

Any captain at the harbour will take you out; the hard part is filling the boat so you're not paying for it alone. Open Jukung and browse the upcoming trips. Each one shows the break, the departure time, and the tide. When one fits, message the surfer on WhatsApp to share the boat out.

How do I share a boat with other surfers?

Either join a trip someone else posted by messaging them, or post your own trip so other surfers can join you. You then sort the meeting spot, seats, and cost directly between yourselves over WhatsApp.

Does Jukung book boats or handle payment for the trip?

No. Jukung is a noticeboard, not a booking app. There are no booking fees and no middleman, and it never handles your boat money. You arrange the boat and split the cost directly with the other surfers.

How much does Jukung cost?

Browsing the board is free. To post your own trips and message other surfers, there's a one-time €5 payment for lifetime access. No subscription, no ads, and Jukung never takes a cut of your boat fare.

Do I need an account?

You can browse trips without signing in. To post a trip or message another surfer you sign in with Google and add a WhatsApp number, which is only shared when you message someone or they message you about a trip. The one-time €5 payment unlocks your first post or message.
