Essential Surf Gear for Surf Trips

If you are planning a surf trip to West Sumbawa, it is important to bring the right gear to ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable experience. Here are some essential items that you should consider packing for your trip:

– Surfboard(s): Bring at least two boards, one for smaller waves and one for bigger waves. The waves in West Sumbawa can vary in size and shape, so having a variety of boards to choose from will help you make the most of your time in the water.

– Wetsuit: Depending on the time of year that you are visiting West Sumbawa, you probably won’t need a wetsuit to keep you warm in the water, but more so for protection from the obscene reef cuts suffered by many at  . During the dry season, from May to September, the water temperature is typically warmer and a 2mm or 3mm wetsuit should suffice. However, during the wet season, from October to April, the water temperature can drop and a thicker wetsuit may be necessary.

– Wax and leash: Bring enough wax for your boards and at least one extra leash in case one breaks.

– Sunscreen: The sun can be intense in West Sumbawa, so be sure to bring plenty of waterproof sunscreen with a high SPF rating to protect your skin from UV rays.

– Surf travel bag: A good quality surf travel bag is essential for protecting your surfboards during transportation. Make sure your bag is big enough to fit all of your boards and has sufficient padding.

– First aid kit: It is always a good idea to bring a basic first aid kit with you on any surf trip, including bandages, antiseptic, pain relievers, and any prescription medications you may need.

– Water-resistant camera: West Sumbawa has some of the most beautiful beaches and landscapes in Indonesia, so bring a water-resistant camera to capture the memories of your trip.

– Cash: There are limited ATMs in West Sumbawa, so it is a good idea to bring cash with you for expenses like food, transportation, and accommodations.

– Remember to always double-check the airline’s baggage policy and surfboard fees before you travel to avoid any unexpected costs or complications.
