Telo Island Waves
Year round the Telo islands, situated off the coast of Sumatra delivers consistent surf unseen in other surf zones.
With a variety of waves to suit all styles and levels of surfers we are spoilt for choice in Telo. Lefts, rights, kiddies corners, well known and the not-so-well known. We have around 20 different wave options at our disposal. Our experienced guides will cater specifically for the type of waves you're looking for and get you the best possible waves on offer.
Speed Boat
The Monaro is our 7.5m half cabin aluminium speed boat ready to take you on your daily surfing adventure.
With twin 140hp Suzukis there’s power to burn to get you to the breaks as quickly as possible. Fully maintained by Sooly, safety and reliability are our main priorities.
Below we have reviewed a hand full of the surrounding waves. Most these waves are quite close so there’s always an offshore option on any given day.
The Rights
Sipika Point
Sipika Point is our closest and most favourite wave. A long walled right point style wave that dishes up an epic tube when the swells get big, and allows for big drawn out turns and carves. Bring your gun for this beast.
Size Range | 5-10ft +
Surfer Ability | Intermediate to Advanced
Ranggas
If you want to get barrelled on a right this is your wave. A kink in the coastline bends the waves onto a shallow reef and throws a lip that can keep you tubed all the way to the channel.
Size Range | 2-6ft
Surfer Ability | Intermediate to Advanced
The Shoe
Situated just around the corner from Mishos this peeling right is a fun walled wave with a good tube on the right conditions.
Size Range | 3-8ft+
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
Hotdogs
Breaking almost parallel to the beach this unique setup grows after the takeoff and will send you flying through the inside at a rate of knots.
Size Range | 3-6ft+
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
The Bubble
A long wave on it’s day this runner can deliver a quick tube on the take off and some fun turns all the way to the end.
Size Range | 2-4ft
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
Wilkes
Our go to spot when the swell fades out. A short, fun swell magnet that can throw a lip on bigger days and fun racey sections when it’s small.
Size Range | 2-5ft
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
The Lefts
Mishos
Probably the most consistent and funnest wave in our area. Being such a long ride it’s popular with everyone from the groms to the OG’s. With many moods it can be a fast racing wave or cutback city and occasionally the odd cover up or head dip.
Size Range | 2-6ft +
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
JB’s
A long walled left that can produce a memorable tube.
Size Range 3 - 6ft+
Intermediate to advanced.
Jurassic Park
A fairly well known wave these days with a backdrop that is hard to beat. World class views and world class fun at this wally and barrelling left.
Size Range | 2-5ft +
Surfer Ability | Beginner to Advanced
These reviews barely scratch the surface on what’s on offer in Telo.
Like anywhere different conditions on different days can light up lesser known areas and waves that are still very ‘off the radar’.
