Surf spot

This month's spot is : Nias island
The beautiful island has known for its perfect wave located in Northern Sumatra region. Around 1975, some of Australian surfers like Peter Troy, Kevin Lovert and Jhon Giesel were the first people who had surf in Nias. The island of ± 700.000 living people and its 380/236 miles wide had ever been held a local contest and WQS (World Qualifying Series). One of the famous spot was Lagundri bay at Serode island which had the best right side wave and also at Hinako island has the best perfect swell ever.
