Take the bus from Kuta to Padang Bai in Bali. Take the Ferry to Lembar in Lombok. Catch a Bimo to all the accomodations on the beach for the hardcore surfers. If you want air conditioning and tv then stay at the hotels nearby. Fifty Dollars is more than enough to go round trip. The trip takes 8 hours including a 5 hour boat ride. Charter Boats are also available from Bali.
Very long, hollow waves that almost always end in a barrel. It needs some swell though to really start working. Watch out for low tide sessions!! The inside breaks on shallow reef.
Overview
Atmosphere
Voted "The Best Wave in the World" by Aussie Tracks magazine. But it is also one of the most inconsistent waves in the world, needing a mega swell. But if you're there on the right day...
General
Best wave in the area.

malaria
malaria is endemic in the region. numerous cases have been reported in Bali. If your staying on a boat and it's offshore do you think your safe? hehe
