Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of wave is Jimmy's Right?

Jimmy's Right is a reef break in North Krui, Indonesia, that mostly breaks right.

What swell works best at Jimmy's Right?

Jimmy's Right picks up swell from the S round to the SW, and it's best when it's coming straight out of the SSW. That's a tight window, so it needs the swell direction to line up. It starts working at around 1.2m and handles up to about 3m, with the sweet spot around 2 to 2.6m. Period matters too: aim for 14s or longer, as anything under 10s tends to be weak. These are the numbers our scoring uses, so treat them as a guide rather than a promise.

What wind is offshore at Jimmy's Right?

A SE wind is dead offshore at Jimmy's Right, and anything from the ESE round to the SSE keeps it clean. The morning is typically the best window, roughly 6am to midday. Light winds from other directions can still be fine; strong offshores can make it hard to get into waves.

What tide is best at Jimmy's Right?

Jimmy's Right is at its best around the mid to high tide, roughly 0.7m to 1.8m on the local chart.

When is the best time of year to surf Jimmy's Right?

The most reliable run of swell at Jimmy's Right comes Apr to Oct. There's a second window in Nov to Mar too. Best Apr-Oct (dry season, SE trades offshore). Swells year-round but wet season brings onshore winds.

How cold is the water at Jimmy's Right?

The water at Jimmy's Right averages around 28°C, so boardshorts or a rashguard will do. It shifts a few degrees through the year, so check the season before you pack.

Is Jimmy's Right good for beginners?

Not really. It's rated 7/10 for difficulty and suits experienced surfers. Expect a moderate crowd (4/10) when it's on. Things to watch for: sharp, shallow reef (booties help).
