We have the phenomenon that every year happens. Surfers make room for the kitesurfers in Indonesia. This happens in May when wind is turning from Off-shore to Cross-onshore. Best Months are June and July and August.

Everyone knows that Sumatra has quality waves. From a left hander to the right hander and not to forget the A-frame. The left will always work. That is why we have more people kitesurfing finding the way to this little place what is already famous for its surfing.

I can describe the place as relaxed, beach-life, great wind, and a lot of fun on the waves. So enjoy!

Been there twice in the past two years. Happy for crew to PM me also....

One thing Yudi doesn't mention - his ability to get some of the best Sumatran coffee beans around....brought back 6kg last year - we could smell our bags coming off the plane

Many years ago I did I dabbled. But never found the love. Too much waiting and not enough action for me. plus too much local hierachy bull**** goes on (or did back then)

I'm a mountain biker that saw somebody do a big jump and thought. "**** that looks a whole lot of fun"

And it was!.... the rest is history.

Some of the best surf in the world Nias, Memtawais, Krui, Esu few well known spots. The places I would go to now would be more kiteable waves specific and banda aceh does interest me but I wont be travelling there any time soon.
