Calalin Pass surf guide

Calalin Pass is a surf spot located within a lagoon area, known for its righthander that can be quite fickle. The spot is accessible only by boat, requiring a 35km (22mi) ride from the anchorage, which can take some time. It's important to note that conditions here can be a bit challenging due to strong currents, especially since it serves as the main passage into the lagoon. The surf tends to be onshore most of the time when it breaks during the northern swell season.

The optimal swell direction for Calalin Pass is from the north, but it can also handle waves coming in from the northwest and northeast. It’s capable of breaking swells as small as 2ft (0.6m) and works best over live coral. You can expect right-hand waves, which are suitable for intermediate surfers. The spot tends to function well at low, mid, and high tide but will be greatly influenced by wind conditions, with southeast winds being preferable for the best surf.

Given the remote location and the boat access, be prepared for a bit of adventure to get to Calalin Pass. It’s a unique spot that offers a distinct experience for surfers willing to put in the effort to reach it, especially if you're looking for a less crowded wave in a stunning lagoon setting.
