Pantai Panjang surf guide

Pantai Panjang, which means Long Beach, is located in Bengkulu province and is known for having the most consistent surf in the area. The beach stretches almost 7 kilometers, offering plenty of peaks to choose from. There's a headland at one end and an inlet to the estuary at the other, with a sand-bottom break that caters to a variety of wave types.

The waves here work best with a south-west swell, but you can also catch rides from south-east and west swells. It handles swell sizes around 1 ft (0.3 meters) comfortably. You can find both left and right breaks along the beach, making it suitable for surfers of different skill levels. The preferable wind direction is from the north-east, and you can surf during low, mid, or high tides, which makes it flexible for your session.

This spot is popular not just with surfers but also with locals enjoying the beach, so you'll find a friendly vibe here. It’s a good place to meet other surfers and share tips or even catch a few waves together. If you're a beginner looking to practice, Pantai Panjang could be a great spot to build your skills.
