Ekas
A reef in Ekas Bay on Lombok's south-east coast that breaks both ways over rocky reef. Wannasurf rates it a regional classic for all surfers: fun rather than heavy, long rides (150-300m), working on all tides from 1-1.5m of south-west to south-east swell up to 2.5m+, with a south-east wind. Hire a boat; otherwise it is a long paddle.

Graded from Level 4. The page calls it suitable for all surfers and the wave itself is fun, but it breaks over rocky reef and you reach it by boat or a long paddle. It is a step up from a beach break, not a first wave.
