Ujong Karang surf guide

Ujong Karang is a surf spot located near Meulaboh, known for its mixed quality waves. While it might not be the most popular spot in Indonesia, it's a place that can catch some decent swells if conditions align right. It sits at a notable headland, and beyond Meulaboh toward Susoh or Singkil, you'll find some less-explored surf areas.

The best swell direction here is from the SouthWest, but it can also handle swells coming from the South and West. It works well with wave sizes around 2ft (0.6 meters). The waves break over an uneven reef, primarily offering left-hand waves. For optimal conditions, the wind coming from the East is preferable, and it's good to surf at low, mid, or high tide. Keep in mind that this spot is more suited for intermediate surfers, so some experience is recommended.

Despite its average reputation, some surfers enjoy the challenge that Ujong Karang offers. It's a great spot for those looking to avoid the crowds and explore what this part of Indonesia has to offer. If you venture beyond the main areas, you might just find your own slice of surf paradise.
