About Are Guling
Are Guling é um spot de surf localizado a apenas 15 minutos a oeste de Kuta Lombok, e é caracterizado por uma direita rápida e poderosa sobre o recife, além de uma esquerda mais amigável e longa. É uma baía não desenvolvida com acesso semi-remoto, o que garante pequenas multidões mesmo na alta temporada. Are Guling é um dos segredos mais bem guardados do sul de Lombok: quebra com boa forma, lida bem com o vento e oferece ondas tanto para surfistas intermediários quanto avançados. A vista da lineup, cercada por colinas verdes e uma baía aberta, torna este lugar espetacular para surfar.
Local knowledge
Ambos os picos quebram sobre um recife de coral raso e afiado que fica perigosamente exposto em marés baixas — a direita rápida em particular quebra forte sobre o recife seco, então cortes de recife, ouriços e algumas pedras são riscos reais. Há uma corrente perceptível puxando pela baía que pode arrastá-lo em direção ao canal em um swell maior, e o ambiente semi-remoto significa que a ajuda está longe se você ficar preso no recife. O tempo da maré é tudo aqui; surfe muito baixo e você estará surfando uma lâmina.
Cerca de 15 minutos a oeste de Kuta Lombok de scooter ou carro por estradas de terra irregulares até a baía — estacione perto dos warungs ou da praia no cabeço da baía, onde algumas barracas simples oferecem água e um olhar atento sobre seu equipamento. Da areia, é um paddle moderado até os picos; use o canal mais profundo entre a esquerda e a direita para sair e para a saída, e sincronize sua entrada/saída em uma maré média crescente para evitar arranhar o recife interno.
Traga sua prancha curta regular para a esquerda brincalhona e mais longa em dias pequenos a médios. Quando a direita estiver boa e o swell aumentar, suba para uma prancha de 6'4"–6'8" com um pouco mais de paddle e sustentação para que você possa fazer a descida rápida e íngreme e ultrapassar a seção do recife.
mellow — relaxed vibe.

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.
