Nago Island

Nago Island is a high-quality reef peak in the Kavieng pass that offers both left and right options over shallow coral. The left is the primary draw, delivering lip-bashing wall sections that link into a tucking inside barrel, while the right is more fickle but can produce charging hollow waves when conditions align. Part of the Kavieng surf zone accessed via Nusa Island Retreat, Nago works on northwest swells from the North Pacific and can deliver rides up to 300 meters on the best days. With zero crowds and crystal-clear tropical water, it epitomizes the PNG frontier surf experience.
