The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands
Aug 28th surf report.
Our latest guests left this morning. When we were looking at the forecasts before that group arrived 10 days ago, we were pretty much horrified! It took all we had to keep a stiff upper lip when the they asked us what to expect during their stay. But if you have been keeping up with our Facebook, you have seen that this ended up being a pretty good trip. The winds kept changing around and we were lucky enough to be frequently be in the right place at the right time. And, although there were times when we couldn’t beat the crowd, there were plenty of times that we did and got good, clean waves to ourselves. Yesterday was no exception with 4 Bobs stepping up to give us a good session with no one else around.
Looking at predictions for the group that arrives today, this trip couldn’t be any more different from the last one. If you can believe the forecasts, it should be solid! Stay tuned.
August 26th surf report
Our lucky streak continues, at least for half of our guests. The swell was a little bigger that we were expecting yesterday. Half our guys went to Hideaways where there were some great waves, both there were also three charter boats there and that made things tough. But the other half of our guys went around to look at Beng Beng and when they saw Ebay empty and firing, they adjusted their schedule! They got some great waves to them selves with perfect conditions. After a while, the wind got a bit side shore and a few other surfers caught on, but by then it was time to head home. Looking for similar surf tomorrow.
