The Mentawai Islands receive swell from all directions. It is generally bigger in the dry season, May to November, but gets good swell most of the year. The variety of waves here means that all standards of surfers will enjoy the Mentawais.
H.T.'S - a short, perfect right-hand barrel
Lances Lefts - excellent left-hander with two barrel sections
Maccas - a mechanical left that barrels on take off then provides a long, extremely workable wall
Thunders - a consistent hollow left that provides a great wave when everywhere else is small
Arrik's - Excellent left with workable sections, and can handle plenty of size.
There are other waves in the vicinity,and new spots are being surfed on a regular basis.
