Savu Right is a surf spot that can be quite unpredictable, often depending on the right conditions to deliver its best. Located in an area that gets a mix of swells, it sometimes showcases amazing right-hand waves over a reef, but don’t expect it to be firing all the time. When conditions align, it can produce some solid rides that are worth the wait, even if it often leaves surfers skunked.

The optimal swell direction here is from the Southwest, with the best action happening when the swell size hits around 3 feet (approximately 0.9 meters) or more. Waves break over a dead coral reef, which adds a unique element to the ride. Expect right-hand waves that can really catch an experienced surfer’s eye. For the best results, aim for low to mid tide, and keep an eye on wind direction—southeast winds work best, but with the wrong conditions, it can easily get messy. This spot is really for experts only, so make sure you're ready for some challenging sessions.

Savu Right is known for its medium consistency and is rarely crowded, giving surfers a bit more space to work with when the surf is up. However, be prepared for some waiting—it can be a bit hit or miss, and not every day will be a standout. Patience is key here if you're hoping for those perfect barrels that can come with the right swell direction and tide.
