Surf Report

The wet season is almost upon Nemberala now,with large build up of clouds and the wind is beginning to swing around in all directions.
Swell size is still head high,coming more from the south,creating good surf conditions at Boa.
Hopefully we will see some very good swell through the wet season,when the cyclone season starts off the north coast of Australia.
Crowd numbers are almost non existent currently,with most establishments now closed for the season.

Getting there

Wings air are now flying daily from Kupang to Rote, departing from Kupang at 3pm which allows you to connect with the Garuda 11am flight from Bali to Kupang.
The flight departs Rote at 4pm to Kupang, unfortunately this doesn’t connect with Garuda flight back to Bali, so an overnight stay is required.
If you wish to connect with the 4pm Garuda flights you need to take the fast ferry from Rote to Kupang.
