About Miller's Right
Miller's Right é um poderoso reef break oco na costa sudoeste de Sumba que exige respeito dos surfistas experientes. Ele forma direitas rápidas e tubulares sobre um recife afiado, proporcionando os tipos de tubos pesados pelos quais surfistas avançados viajam longas distâncias. As ondulações precisam ser lidas com cuidado, e o recife raso significa que as quedas podem ser severas. Prepare uma boa variedade de pranchas e venha preparado para uma das ondas mais emocionantes de Sumba.
Local knowledge
O recife em Miller's Right é extremamente raso na maré baixa — uma queda pesada sobre a seção seca pode resultar em lacerações sérias devido ao coral afiado, portanto, é altamente recomendável o uso de botas de recife e um capacete. Uma forte corrente lateral percorre o recife com a subida e descida das ondas, tornando fácil ser arrastado para fora do canal se você não estiver prestando atenção. Ouriços-do-mar são abundantes na plataforma do recife, então evite colocar os pés em qualquer lugar fora do canal de areia.
As estradas da costa sudoeste de Sumba são ruins — um 4x4 ou moto é essencial para chegar à trilha que desce até a praia. A maioria dos surfistas se baseia em Pero ou Waitabula e ou dirige até o ponto de acesso mais próximo ou organiza uma curta transferência de barco com um guia local, que é a opção preferida em ondulações maiores, quando a remada pelo canal é difícil. Entre pelo canal à esquerda interna do quebra-mar; não tente entrar ou sair sobre o próprio recife.
Em uma ondulação padrão de 3 a 6 pés, uma prancha de performance ou um step-up na faixa de 6'2" a 6'8" com um pouco de volume extra se adapta perfeitamente às seções rápidas e ocas. Quando a ondulação ultrapassa 6 pés, traga um step-up adequado ou semi-gun — essa onda fica grossa e poderosa rapidamente, e estar subdimensionado nas séries maiores pode te colocar em apuros.
moderate — be polite, wait your turn.

Surfing in Sumba
Full Sumba surf guide →Sumba feels like a slip back in time — a wild, low-key island southeast of Bali that has so far escaped the development that reshaped its neighbours. Vast savannah plains, rolling hills, megalithic villages and empty golden beaches define a landscape that surfers describe as the Indonesia they were chasing all along.
✈️Getting there
Most travellers fly in via Bali (Denpasar). Sumba has two airports: Tambolaka (Waikabubak) in the west and Waingapu in the east, both served by short domestic flights from Denpasar, with some connections via Kupang or Bali several times daily.
🛵Getting around
Sumba is large and spread out, and the surf zones are far apart, so transport planning matters. Scooter rental is possible in the bigger towns, fine for short hops but tiring and exposed for long cross-island runs — and roads vary from decent asphalt to rough, potholed stretches.
🌤️Climate & season
Sumba has a pronounced dry and wet season. The dry season, roughly April to October, is prime time: cleaner conditions, dependable groundswell and the prevailing trade winds that groom the swell-exposed coasts. This is the core surf window.
