The Waves in Krui – What is the surf like at the end of April / early October?
South Sumatra is home to some of Indonesia’s best waves, and October marks the tail end of the dry season with solid, consistent swells. While the peak season swells of July and August begin to mellow, October still delivers powerful waves, with clean conditions, lighter winds, and glassy 3 to 5-foot sets. While this time of the year makes it more suitable to intermediate surfers, Krui is particularly suited for advanced surfers, as the waves can be fast, hollow, and challenging.
Krui offers a variety of surf spots, including beach breaks, reef point breaks, and heavy slabs. These waves provide long, peeling rides as well as intense, barreling sections—perfect for those looking to push their skills in more demanding conditions. With fewer crowds than peak season, October allows us to make the most of the surf and explore different breaks with more flexibility.
