Seven Palms

North Sipora, Mentawai, Indonesia
🪸Sharp reef

Seven Palms is a quality right reef break in North Sipora that is often surfed alone, overlooked by charter boats heading to more famous nearby spots like Telescopes and Scarecrows. The wave picks up W swell and works best at mid tide with light easterly winds. Its low profile in the Mentawai hierarchy means empty lineups and peaceful sessions—a rare commodity in an increasingly busy surf zone.
