The Hole

East Sumba, Indonesia
🪸Sharp reef😮‍💨Hold-downs

The Hole is a deep-water right reef break on East Sumba's south coast featuring a large lineup with multiple take-off areas. The wave produces peaky bowls with considerable power, offering a different experience to the neighbouring Tarimbang Right. Its deep-water nature means it handles bigger swells better, creating powerful, open-face waves that reward advanced surfers with driving turns and occasional barrel sections.
