THE BOAT
Jiwa has been operating in North Sumatra for the last 10 yrs and has become a specialist in the area. Known for going that extra mile to ensure that you and your mates are scoring perfect waves and are well looked after. A traditional vessel, her classic lines fit in perfectly with the Sumatran backdrop. At 24m with an open plan layout, she’s big & roomy with loads of shaded deck space and areas to chill. Great food, friendly crew, expert guides, and an on-board photographer give you the perfect base for the trip of a lifetime.
THE REGION
The region is known for world class, consistent waves which can handle a variety of conditions and wind directions. On a North trip, the right hand reef Treasure Island is one of the most famous waves; its long winding walls have been stoking guests out for years. There’s plenty more on offer though; winding reefs, punchy setups, mellow points and barreling lefts, we’ll take you to them all. Remote islands, dense jungle backdrops and Bintang sunsets combine to provide the perfect setting for what is still one of the best surf trips on the planet.
