Indonesia 2024: Best Surf Of A Great Season - Desert Point, Mentawais, G-Land, Bali, and Beyond.

It begins with the Dry Season - the arrival of the tradewinds. Drawn across Indonesia each year by the retreating monsoon, the south-east trades turn a thousand surf spots into wind-blown gold. Surfers from all over the world arrive with the wind, turning the chain into one of surfing’s great crossroads. This year was no exception - yet like every year, 2024’s dry season had its own unique shape and size. Come with us into this epic surf season, as we track the elements that made the best and weirdest of an up and down year, showcase the great sessions that took place, and speak with a great Indonesian surfer about his island’s wild post pandemic over-popularity.
