Surf Ariks

Ariks - Indonesia Ariks is a right-hand reef break characterized by hollow, fast, and powerful waves over a coral bottom. It typically works at all tides, especially favoring low tide for better shape. The spot requires a west to southwest swell and northeast winds to deliver optimal conditions, making it a reliable choice when other nearby waves are flat. Located at the end of a long reef, Ariks offers fun waves that can produce barrels on take-off, though they may sometimes back off into a long ride. Surfers should be cautious of exposed coral heads, particularly at low tide. While the local scene can be busy with Tua Pajet locals, particularly on weekends, the spot generally sees few surfers during the week. Accessible only by boat, Ariks provides a unique surfing experience away from the more crowded areas, making it ideal for those seeking a chill session when conditions align.
