About Hinako Rights
Hinako Rights adalah reef break yang kuat dan cepat di Kepulauan Hinako dekat Nias, menghasilkan ombak kanan yang tajam dan berongga yang membuat peselancar tingkat lanjut tetap waspada sejak saat lepas landas. Ombak bergerak cepat di sepanjang reef, menawarkan bagian barrel yang ketat dan dinding curam yang memberi imbalan bagi surfing yang agresif dan berkomitmen. Mencapainya memerlukan perahu, yang secara alami menjaga kerumunan tetap kecil dan pengalaman tetap mentah. Gabungkan dengan charter selancar Kepulauan Hinako yang lebih luas untuk petualangan Nias yang benar-benar tidak biasa.
Local knowledge
Reef ini dangkal, terumbu karang hidup dan sangat tajam — terjatuh pada momen yang salah dapat berarti luka serius, jadi sepatu bot dan helm benar-benar layak dipertimbangkan saat swell besar. Arus saluran yang kuat mengalir di samping reef dan dapat menarik Anda dari reef dengan cepat jika Anda kehilangan papan; ketahui di mana keluar rip sebelum mendayung keluar. Lalu lintas perahu di saluran adalah faktor nyata — tetap waspada saat mendayung kembali keluar, karena perahu charter dan tender bergerak melalui secara teratur.
Hinako Rights hanya dapat diakses dengan perahu, sekitar 1–2 jam perjalanan perahu dari Teluk Lagundri atau dapat dijangkau dengan charter liveaboard yang beroperasi dari Nias atau Mentawai. Sebagian besar peselancar menambatkan perahu charter mereka di saluran dan mendayung jarak pendek ke lineup — koordinasikan dengan nakhoda Anda tentang titik penjemputan yang jelas di ujung saluran untuk keluar yang aman. Tidak ada warung, fasilitas atau akses pantai di lokasi ini; bawa semua yang Anda butuhkan dari perahu.
Shortboard berkinerja tinggi dalam rentang 6'2"–6'6" dengan sedikit ketebalan dan rocker ekstra menangani lepas landas yang curam dan bagian barrel yang cepat dengan baik. Naik ke 6'8"–7'0" pin atau step-up gun saat swell solid mendorong ukuran di atas 6 kaki, dan bawa setup thruster atau quad untuk dorongan maksimum melalui bagian yang berongga.
mellow — relaxed vibe.

Surfing in Nias
Full Nias surf guide →Off the west coast of North Sumatra, Nias is one of Indonesia's true surf landmarks — home to Lagundri Bay, the right-hand point at the island's southern tip that put the country on the world surf map back in the 1970s. It's a place of pilgrimage, where a single peeling wall over coral has drawn travelling surfers for decades.
✈️Getting there
Most surfers fly into Binaka Airport (GNS) at Gunungsitoli in the north of Nias, usually via Medan (Kualanamu, KNO) on a short domestic hop with Wings Air or similar. From Bali or Jakarta you'll connect through Medan.
🛵Getting around
At Lagundri Bay everything is walkable — the losmen sit right along the point, and you can paddle out from the steps. Many guests don't need transport at all once settled.
🌤️Climate & season
Nias has a tropical equatorial climate — warm and humid year-round, with water temperatures sitting around 27–29°C, so boardshorts and a rash guard are plenty (boots for the reef, not warmth).
