Surf The Peak

The Peak - Krui, Sumatra The Peak features a short, hollow wave that breaks both right and left over a sharp coral reef. This powerful and fast wave is best surfed at mid to high tide, particularly during a rising tide. Located just before the town of Krui, it offers instant access from the nearby Secret Sumatra surf camp. This surf spot is known for its challenging conditions, making it ideal for experienced surfers seeking excitement. While the wave can deliver thrilling sessions, it is sensitive to wind and swell size, leading to variable surf conditions. The area tends to be empty during the week, but expect some crowding on weekends, especially from the surf camp. Surfers should be cautious of hazards like urchins, rips, and sharp rocks. Arriving early is advisable to secure a good position in the lineup, as the surf can attract competition during optimal conditions.
