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

RIP Mick
In late March "Have a chat Mick" passed away in Sumatra. Mick was Lombok's permanent visitor and he loved the place. Mick was ever helpful to visiting sufers. I understand his ashes were spread at Mawi. If that's the case his final resting place is in one of the most spectacular spots in Indo. RÍP Mick.

Boss
As mentioned by others, Mawi is an awesome place to surf. Can be heavy when it gets real big and the reef is sharp but on a good day it's awesome.
Hire a bike in Kuta and get down there. Small warung on the beach where for 5K they'll look after your bike and gear, 5K for a Kopi Susu and Beng Beng and 5K for a pineapple; too lovely. Great place to stay in Kuta is Segare Anak bungalows. Enjoy.

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
