Tarimbang Right
Tarimbang Right is probably Sumba's most surfed wave, offering fast hollow sections that transition into softer shoulders, making it accessible to surfers of all abilities. Located on East Sumba's wild south coast, the wave breaks over a coral reef in warm, clear water with dramatic cliff scenery as the backdrop. It's the go-to wave for most visiting surfers, combining quality with accessibility in a stunning tropical setting.
