There are many surf spots on the south coast of West Java that deal directly with the Indian Ocean, Pangandaran in the east end of the borders with Central Java, Ujung Genteng and Pelabuhan Ratu in Sukabumi or in Sawarna and Panaitan in Banten. In the offshore area, there are several small islands which are excellent for surfing activities such as Tinjil Island, Panaitan island and Dili island.
Throughout the year we can get consistent waves for surfing in this area, but the best is in the middle of the dry season between May till October, usually not too crowded and not too quiet so you will not surf alone, the average height of the waves were 6-12 feet or 2-4 meters.
Although not as popular as Bali, West Java clearly has exciting surf spots and some of them are the best in Indonesia.

Terdapat banyak spot surfing di pantai selatan Jawa Barat yang berhadapan langsung dengan Samudra Hindia, dari Pangandaran di ujung timur yang berbatasan dengan Jawa Tengah, Ujung Genteng dan Pelabuhan Ratu di Sukabumi atau di Sawarna dan Panaitan di Banten. Di kawasan lepas pantainya terdapat beberapa pulau kecil yang sangat baik untuk kegiatan surfing seperti Pulau Tinjil, Pulau Dili dan Pulau Panaitan.
Sepanjang tahun kita bisa mendapatkan ombak yang konsisten untuk berselancar di kawasan ini, namun musim terbaiknya adalah pertengahan kemarau antara bulan Mei sd Oktober, umumnya tidak terlalu ramai dan tidak terlalu sepi sehingga Anda tidak akan surfing sendirian, rata-rata ketinggian ombaknya 6-12 feet atau 2-4 meter.
Walaupun tidak sepopular Bali, namun jelas Jawa Barat memiliki spot-spot surfing menarik dan beberapa di antaranya adalah terbaik di Indonesia.
