In-Season is a great time to push your barrel-riding limits while also kicking back and surfing your favorite fish just around the corner. When Rifles is pumping double overhead barrels, 4bobs is slightly overhead and perfect for turns. When Kandui Left is triple overhead, Karangbat Left is head high and perfect for cruising. While the Northern Mentawais have some of the best barreling waves in Indonesia (Kandui Left, Rifles, Bank Vaults, Hideaways), this area is unique in that it has something for everyone.

During this time of year, the surf rarely drops below head high and during a standard trip to Kandui Resort, guests can expect 1-2 swells to really get the blood flowing. Once high pressure breaks in the Indian Ocean, storms start marching from Africa to Indonesia and do not stop till late season. The Kandui Resort In-Season (April – Sept) is in the center of Indian Ocean SW swell season. The athletes daughter, Isabella Jones, broke the news on Instagram Sunday.

The Playgrounds region is the most wave rich surf location on earth and Kandui Resort is the only resort with beach access. Surfing pro Mikala Jones died in a freak surfing accident Sunday morning.

Countless islands, perfect reef passes, light winds, remote location and a conveyor belt of relentless swell from 6,000 miles away, there is literally no other place in this world that compares to the Mentawais. Ever since the world was introduced to the Mentawai Islands over 25 years ago, the surf world has never been the same.
