Surfers carrying their boards down to the water at Awang Bay, Lombok

Awang · Ekas · Lombok

The waves you came forare the ones with no road.

We meet you at Awang harbour and run twenty-five minutes across to Ekas Bay — reef passes most people only see on a map, a skipper who reads the tide off the cliffs, and you back on the sand by sunset.

  • Meet at Awang harbour30 min from Kuta
  • Surf Ekas Bay25 min by boat
  • Pay on the daycash, no deposit

Daily surf shuttle & lessons

Skip the two-hour scooter ride. Be in the water by seven.

Ekas, Melody, Kura Kura and the reefs in between are twenty-five minutes from Awang harbour by boat — and three hours by road, if the road even gets you there. We leave every morning with the tide.

Surfing as a group of four or more? Ask about a private boat for the day — you decide when to move and when to stay.

Fishing & spearfishing

The same water, forty feet down.

The reefs that make the waves also hold the fish. Mid-morning, once the surf goes soft, we drop the anchor and go looking — trolling on the way out, spearfishing on the drop-offs, hand-lining over the coral heads.

  • Rods, reels and live bait
  • Speargun, fins, mask and weight belt
  • Guide in the water with you
  • Your catch grilled on the beach after

Spearfishing runs with Eye to Sea. No experience needed on the surface — if you can snorkel, you can come. Certified freedivers get taken to the deeper ledges.

    Boat out

    Boards loaded, coffee in hand, lines off. Twenty-five minutes along the cliffs while the skipper picks the first stop.

  2. 07:00 · Session one

    The morning surf

    Two to three hours on whichever reef is holding the cleanest swell. The boat stays on the shoulder — get in, get out, move on when it drops.

  3. 11:30 · Anchored in the bay

    Grilled fish lunch

    Whole fish over coals, rice, sambal, fresh fruit. Eaten on the deck with the anchor down in flat water.

  4. 14:00 · Session two

    The afternoon surf

    New tide, new spot. Usually the one nobody else can reach — the reason this trip exists.

  5. 17:30 · Back to Awang

    Sunset run home

    The last hour of light across the bay, board shorts still wet, everybody quiet.

What people say after

Nobody comes back quiet.

He made sure I could surf inside Ekas while my girlfriend enjoyed a lesson closer to the beach with a softer wave, perfect for her level.
Henry M.Google review · September 2026
Absolutely THE BEST captain to go to Ekas spots. He is kind, respectful, always very responsive on Instagram.

Before you book

The things everyone asks on WhatsApp.

If the answer you need isn't here, send a message — it's the same phone either way.

Where do we meet?

At Awang harbour, about thirty minutes by scooter from Kuta. Send a message on WhatsApp the day before and we'll drop you the exact pin — the harbour is easy to reach but the parking spot is not obvious the first time. If you'd rather not ride, we can arrange transport from Kuta for an extra fee.

Do I need to be a good surfer?

No. Ekas Bay holds a wave for every level on the same tide: soft, forgiving inside sections where beginners stand up on their first morning, and steep reef walls further out for people who have surfed for years. Tell us where you're at when you book and the skipper picks accordingly.

What happens if the surf or the weather is bad?

You pay nothing. There's no deposit and no prepayment — you settle up when you arrive, or after the session. If the skipper calls it off in the morning, you owe us nothing and we find you another day.

How do I pay?

Cash in Indonesian rupiah, on the day. No card machine, no bank transfer, no booking fee. There's an ATM in Kuta — bring what you need before you ride out, there's nothing at the harbour.

How many people are on the boat?

Up to twelve guests, fourteen with the crew. Most mornings there are far fewer. If you're a group of four or more and want the boat to yourselves, ask about a private charter — you decide when to move and when to stay.

What should I bring?

Sunscreen, a hat, a towel, a rash vest if you burn, and cash. Drinking water and dry storage are on the boat. Bring your own board if you travel with one — otherwise Kolega Surf Shop in Kuta rents good equipment and fixes dings the same day.

Can I book for tomorrow morning?

Usually yes. Message us on WhatsApp with your date and how many of you there are — we come back within the hour with the forecast and the spot. In July and August the boat fills faster, so give us a couple of days if you can.

I don't surf. Is there anything for me?

Plenty. The fishing and spearfishing trips run on the same reefs, and on the day trip there's snorkelling, a beach to sit on and grilled fish at lunch while the others are in the water. Nobody has to paddle out.

Still not sure?

Ask anything. We answer in English and Bahasa, usually within the hour, and there's no pressure to book afterwards.

Where to find us

The boat leaves from the harbour, not from a hotel lobby.

Drop a pin and come down to the water. If you can't find it, send a message — someone will walk out and wave.
