Tea Bags
Tea Bags is another quality barrel on Simeulue Island, offering right reef break tube rides in a setting that is far less explored than the neighbouring Mentawai Islands. The wave provides a good alternative to Dylan's Right when the swell direction shifts, and the island's remote nature ensures uncrowded lineups. Simeulue is gradually gaining recognition as a quality surf destination for experienced surfers seeking adventure.
