Thanks Simo for all the bad news.We are booked to fly out next week . Fingers crossed we get something.
Any advice on the accomodation? Any knowledge of the breaks south of Lhonkga.

Ah its not all bad news, its a gamble, but at this time of year,with the change of wind direction(season), the winds could still be light or offshore and there can even be solid swell around this time of year..if it was June, July, August then yeah it would be strong onshore for sure...you never know.

South of there needs solid swell or west swell, sorry cant say much more than that..

Is Jon the same as John..who just been there?...

Yeah its a very fickle area.....I think theres a generally rule these days with Indonesia.

"IF THERES NOT A WESTERN SURF CAMP/RESORT OR SURF CHARTER OPERATING IN AN  CERTAIN AREA THEN THE WAVES IN THAT AREA ARE FICKLE"

ECT: May get classic, but not every day/week, but only certain times of year as in wet season or on big swells.
