K-Land
K-Land is a world-class reef pass on Savai'i's south coast, named after the legendary G-Land in Java. A long, wrapping left with both hollow barrelling sections and rippable walls, surfable from 4-12ft+. Accessed by a 30-minute boat ride from Aganoa Lodge, it's one of the South Pacific's most elite waves—heavy, long, and virtually uncrowded.
