Mawi
A bay west of Kuta Lombok with a reef peak that breaks both left and right, over coral with sand. Wannasurf rates it a regional classic for experienced surfers, hollow and fast, working on all tides from 1-1.5m of swell and holding up to 5m and over. Its own page warns about a very strong rip on the right between the line-up and the entry channel.
