About this break

Type
Reef
Best swell
SSE to NW
A left over reef off the southern end of the airport runway, reached by boat from Tuban or Kedonganan and breaking properly only with some size. It runs 60 to 80 metres over two peaks that spread the crowd, shifty and fairly soft into a deep channel, so it suits intermediates on a small swell and gets racy when bigger. It closes out much above head and a half. Best at mid to high tide, April to October. A less consistent right, Airport Rights, breaks on the north side.
Heads up. Shallow reef, boat access only, strong currents, rocks, current reverses toward the runway at low tide.

AboutGo now and you'll find overhead-high waves with real shape on them. A 17-second period is pushing genuine energy into the lineup, which means the faces hold their form and the walls stay open; the offshore wind from the ESE is glassing the faces clean right now, and the swell is wrapping in from the right angle to fill both peaks. This is a confident surfer's wave at three to five metres overhead, and the rising tide is still playable, get in the water while the window holds.
By mid-afternoon the wind swings onshore from the SE and the face texture will suffer, but the swell itself won't fade much; the size holds around overhead into the evening, though the cross-shore chop will have roughed things up by then. The best of it really does finish around noon.
Tomorrow peaks at the same epic call and looks to build slightly larger, probably topping out near five and a half metres overhead in the morning before wind and tide shift the shape later in the day. It mirrors today's pattern closely enough that if you can paddle out early tomorrow, you'll find cleaner conditions and a swell with even more weight to it, though forecasts at this range can shift and the ocean will have the final word.
