Whispers in the late 90s, led to photos in the 2000s, which led to now being a secret no more. History: For over 30 years surfers had visited Bali, often pining and dreaming for a right hander that handled the Bukit onshores. Season/swell: Breaks from 2 to 8 feet, through the tides and maintains its form even when onshore.ĭescription: Super fun right that walls up from four feet, then starts draining heavily above six. Or for the mad, a brutal and harsh tent and rice (and pasta of course) DIY experience. Logistics: Choose between the land camp Macaronis Resort or the boat trip option. The first boats arrived in the early 90s and since then its been a staple for every Mentawai trip ever since. History: Legend has it that landcampers first discovered the wave and named it after the diet they had been subsisting on for months. It then winds down the reef for 250 yards, at a speed that is absolutely perfect for performance surfing. Description: Macaronis has a fairly steep takeoff that leads straight into a perfect tube.
