Additional Surfing Infos
 tip local people in order not to have things stolen from car and go on the beach...very very very strong riptide on the right between line up and entry channel.If you get caught don t swim( too strong and dont panic)and wait till you are out of it
  Overview
  Atmosphere It is one of the most beautiful and enchanting bay of indonesia.Really a dream land!!!Since it is isolated, pay attention not to hurt yourself: waves can be very powerful, with long hold downs.Once i saw a tiger shark in the water, but fishermen say it is exceptional
  General Very good hollow left (sometimes it is a A frame, but only below 3-4 feet)wuith a terific late take off, a manoeuver section and a final tube...worth the 45 min drive from Kuta-Lombok

Mawi is Scary!!
I got this place real big and real powerful back in June of 06'. It was probably Triplehead for two days during our trip. Not too many people out at this size, cuz the reef here is the sharpest I'd seen in Lombok and the current is ferocious. Great wave, great adventure. Be nice to the locals and you won't have any worries, keep your guard up though, I've heard some bad stories about some of the locals from nearby villages

Pelit kamu
You stingy wanker, think of it as feeding a person for a day, struth you are complaining about $2. Oh well, one less surfer in the water. I'm happy to pay $2 for security.This is Indo remember !

Expensive spot !!!
Hello,Just a message to inform you that locals have put two bareers and expect you to pay twice when you will go surfing this spot. At the beginning of the 4WD track, you will have to pay first 10 000 Rp (The road doesn't seems to be private and is very rough). And, when you are on the parking, you will have to pay again 10 000 Rp for "the security of the car" (Ususally it is 1 000 or 2 000 Rp in Indonesia. The car is visible when you are surfing and there is nobody on the beach expect some farmers or fishermen wich are very friendly and not thieves at all). I thing it a non sense to pay 20 000 Rp to surf this spot even it is not very expensive for the foreigners. I don't like the principle of paying for going surfing so i won't go again to this spot even if it's a nice place with a nice wave.
