The main surf season runs from April-November the Roaring Forties send plenty of 6-12ft (2-4m) swells through April-November ( High Season ). The SSW direction is ideal for their SW facing area. Cross-shore winds are the rule as Lampung means “place of the southerly winds”. The SE trade wind season starts in May with mild winds getting stronger towards the end of the season in October.
