The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Feb 8th surf report. Our 2 guests left today. They were very happy about their trip, especially the first week when 4 Bobs was good every afternoon. Real high tides so the reef was not a factor, perfect conditions, head high waves, and only a few of our staff out encouraging them on every wave. When you are from Germany, that … [Read more...]

The Real Kandui Surf Resort, Mentawai islands 19th January 2013
The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Jan 19th surf report We have been having a great off season for surf. It seems like the Indian Ocean was in the holiday spirit this year, throwing that epic 3 day Bankvaults swell at us around Thanksgiving, another nice swell that we surfed Bankvaults on again around Christmas, and then another swell on New Years day when I didn't … [Read more...]
The REAL Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands XMAS up date.
The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands December 24th surf report. It's been a good off season for swell, probably the best I have ever seen. The Indian Ocean has been very active and anyone looking for surf around here has been scoring for sure.

The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Nov 24th surf report. We've been doing our off season projects out here on the island, surfing little 4 Bobs, weathering the rain, and clinging to any hope of waves that the forecasts might show.

The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands 1st October 2012
The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Oct 1st surf report People ask me every trip if I think Rifles will break. Because of the wind conditions the last couple of months, my answer has been, "little chance", "no chance", and "in your dreams"! I figured the same for this trip, but mother nature had different plans. Our little south swell was hanging in there this … [Read more...]
The real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai islands 29th Sept 2012
The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Sep 29th surf report What can I say! When it's bad, it's good! The reports were for pretty small waves today so we bee lined it to Burgerworld as the sun was beginning to rise. We surfed for a while, but it was a little big for it and disorganized on top of that. A few boats showed up and we were out of there. We hit Nipusi on … [Read more...]

The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Sep 8th surf report Well, we had a bombing south swell roll through the last couple of days, but strong south wind were blowing out the spots that were pulling in the brunt of it. We have still been getting some fun Hideaways (although it's been packed lately), and Ebay/Pitstops was good to us one day, and Beng Beng has been … [Read more...]
The real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands, 3rd Sept 2012
The Real Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands Sep 3rd surf report This swell looked good on the charts, and it didn't disappoint! The winds looked like they might be a bit of a problem with the howling souths that have been blowing, and when we got to Hideaways we weren't sure how the day would develop. It was wild looking. Big, lumpy, windy, and with a ripping current … [Read more...]
