Surf Spot : Simeulue Sumatra Indonesia

90NM west of Tapaktuan on Sumatra.

Part of Aceh Province, Simeulue and its satellite islets are as deep into frontier land as you can get. Essentially a volcanic island that is densely forested and surrounded by coral at varying depths, there isn't much 'civilization', and accommodation is minimal.

Baneng Beach Retreat on the southwest corner of Simeulue is the only surfing resort on the island and is by far the best option for those wanting to enjoy the Simeulue surfing experience by land.
Visitors to Baneng will almost certainly be surfing perfect waves with just a few friends as there are no local surfers in the area and there are virtually no other accommodation options. This is truly an uncrowded surf destination. The resort offers guided access to waves by boat and by land.

The island is characterized by Palm lined beaches and beautiful bays
with great diving. Smaller off-shore islands are accessed by boat. Air access is available from Medan. Once there, access to surf is harder than hard core. In addition, malaria is a serious problem here. If you want to go surf there, the only truly safe options are via established yacht charters or by prearrangement with the surf camp.
