About Desert Point / Bangko-Bangko

デザートポイントは、地球上で最も優れた左のバレルの一つとして広く認識されています。ロンボクの南西端にある非常に浅いリーフの上で、絶え間なく剥がれ落ちる長くて空洞のチューブです。最良の条件では、インドネシアで最も技術的に要求される波の中でも、長く続くグラインディングバレルを提供します。これは経験豊富で上級者のサーファー専用です。このスポットは孤立しており、リーフは容赦なく、潮流は激しいことがあるため、準備と海への敬意が不可欠です。スウェルが入っていて潮が良いとき、サーファーたちは世界中からこの波を体験するために訪れます。

Local knowledge

Hazards

リーフは非常に浅く、干潮時には鋭い生きたサンゴの上に数インチの水しかありません。そのため、ワイプアウトは本当に危険で、間違ったセクションに落ちると切り傷を負う可能性が高いです。強力で予測不可能なリップがリーフに沿って流れ、チャンネルに向かって押し流します。セットの中で内側に捕まると、潮流が速くサンゴを横切って引きずります。リーフの棚にはウニが密集しているため、ブーツの着用を強くお勧めします。また、孤立した場所であるため、医療支援はかなりの距離があります。

Getting there

デザートポイントはロンボクの南西端、バンコバンコの村の近くに位置しています。マタラム/センギギからセコトン経由で車で2.5〜3時間を見込んでください。最後の区間は荒れたダートトラックで、バイクまたは4WDが必要です。ポイントの上にある小さなワルンエリアに駐車し、岩の道を下って水に向かって進みます。潮が高いときはポイントの上部の岩から入水し、リーフの東端のチャンネルを通ってパドルアウトします。同じチャンネルから戻り、リーフ自体を越えて出ようとしないでください。

Board

6'2"〜6'6"の範囲の高性能ショートボードを持参してください。この波は、長く速いバレルセクションを通じてドライブとホールドを持つボードを評価します。しっかりしたSWスウェルが波を6フィート以上に押し上げるときは、6'8"〜7'2"のガンにステップアップし、より小さくて柔らかい日には、長いセクションを通じてスピードを出すためにややボリュームのあるテンプレートを考慮してください。

Surfing in Lombok

Full Lombok surf guide →

Lombok sits just east of Bali, separated by the deep Lombok Strait, and remains one of the most rewarding surf destinations in the Indonesian archipelago. It carries the spirit of an older Bali — quiet villages, jungle-clad hills, the towering Mount Rinjani volcano to the north, and a string of perfect bays and headlands along the south coast. The surf scene here is laid-back and adventure-driven rather than polished and packaged.

✈️Getting there

Fly into Lombok International Airport (LOP), near Praya in the centre-south of the island — a short 30–45 minute drive from Kuta Lombok and the main surf zone. There are frequent domestic connections from Jakarta, Surabaya and especially Bali (Denpasar), plus some regional international links.

🛵Getting around

A scooter is the default way to explore Lombok's surf coast — cheap to rent in Kuta and ideal for the dirt tracks leading to Mawi, Are Guling and the quieter bays. Bring board racks or a strap, and ride cautiously: roads range from smooth tarmac to potholed dirt, and rural traffic can be unpredictable.

🌤️Climate & season

Lombok has a tropical climate with two clear seasons. The dry season (roughly April–October) is prime time: cleaner conditions, lighter or offshore mornings, and the most consistent south-coast groundswell. This is when nearly every spot — Mawi, Gerupuk, Seger, Are Guling and Desert Point — fires.
