Gerupuk Bay surf guide
Gerupuk is a hill-fringed bay on Lombok's south coast, a short ride east of Kuta. It holds a cluster of reef breaks that can be reached by a quick boat ride from the village.
Several peaks, each favouring a different tide, swell and wind, mean there's almost always something rideable.
InsideThe bay's beginner classic: a slow, forgiving right that peels forever in the eastern corner.›Outside RightThe bay's power wave: a fast, hollow right that barrels with size, under the Gili Golong hills.›Outside LeftA hollow, uncrowded left for confident surfers: the bay's quiet gem, best when it's small.›Don-DonA mellow A-frame in the middle of the bay: long, makeable rides both ways, and a big-swell sanctuary.›

The boats
Boats are priced per boat, not per person: IDR 200,000 for a ~2-hour session. Four surfers splitting one pay IDR 50,000 each. Jukung is the solution to find others heading to the same break and share the ride.
