The Stormrider Surf Guide Sumatra, Nias and the Mentawais takes you on a tropical tour searching for the best waves across this watery playground. Compiled from the highly respected World Stormrider Guide series, this book adds a whole new level of detailed information, presented in a beautiful, user-friendly layout.
If you asked a cross-section of surfers where in the world they would most like to go surfing, the answer would invariably be the Mentawai Islands. This remote, equatorial chain is strung out on the front line of the Indian Ocean swell barrage and possesses an embarrassment of riches when it comes to perfect reef bathymetry and flaccid, wavering winds. And that's not all that Sumatran waters have to offer with a hamper full of tasty waves on Nias, the Hinakos, the Banyaks and the mainland province of Lampung, home of the Sumatran Pipeline.
