LowPressure Stormrider Surf Guide says
Simeulue and Banyak Islands, Indonesia, East Asia
Simeulue and Banyak still maintain a frontier status, avoiding the charter boat congestion of the Ments through a combination of lower consistency and spot density, treating smaller groups to some lively waves, including one of Indo’s best rights. The offshore islands of Sumatra are no secret to surfers; the Mentawais attract ever-increasing crowds to it’s feast of barrels and Nias has continued to draw surf adventurers to Lagundri for the last 35 years, but head further north and the path is far less travelled. The remote island of Simeulue is located 120km (75mi) from the Sumatran west coast, where the surprisingly busy town of Sinabang thrives on trading cloves. To the east, and closer to the mainland by 50kms, the Banyak Island group is in the South Aceh Regency, supporting small populations on seven of the bigger islands, while the majority of the others remain uninhabited. Not surprisingly, these “Many” islands have kept off the radar as Aceh’s civil unrest made getting permits difficult until recently. Many spots remain nameless, or have multiple names from the different boat operators that ply these waters, but there’s a wide choice of lefts and rights, ranging from shallow barrels to deeper, long, cruisey waves as well as some good off-season beachbreaks

Conditions provided by the operator
There are literally UNCROWDED waves all over the south and western side of the island and some yet to be discovered or named. There are at least 10 quality waves within 5 to 60 minutes of the resort. Ranging from super hollow reef break barrels to more mellow easy to ride beach breaks. To give you an idea, some waves near the resort are
The Peak which is about 5 minutes by motor bike or car from the resort. Dylan’s Right which is about
15 minutes and Teupah Island which is about 30 minutes by boat. There are 2 other perfect right handers, 2 tubing left reef breaks and various beach breaks located nearby. All the waves pump on their day depending on swell direction and local weather conditions. Check out images. No matter what water craft you ride, whether you are an experienced surfer or just beginning surfing, we can help find the right waves for you.
The Peak
The peak is a fun perfect left and right which has both hollow barrel sections and nice walls. It picks up any swell and is supper consistent. Its a fun wave which anyone can surf from beginners through to the very experienced.
Dylan's Right
Dylan's Right is a hollow fast prefect right barrel which breaks over shallow reef on the inside of a large south west facing bay. Breaks best in larger swells but produces fun fast waves very consistently for intermediate plus surfers
Teupah
Teupah is an Island directly in front of the resort. It is a heavy right hand barrel. Deep water swells break over a shallow reef creating a serious wave which has real power and length of ride. It picks up more swell easily and starts breaking from about 4 foot. Also super consistent and is better suited to intermediate level surfers
Dickies
Dickies is at the end of a scenic 45 minute journey by bike. It is a punchy left hander breaking onto shallow reef with some nice easy barrel sections surrounded by a beautiful bay is a fun wave for all.
Thailand's Left
Thailand's Left is a consistent long left hand reef break with an easy take off and fast sections and another popular boat package. Best suited to intermediate plus surfers.
Did you know?
Simeulue unlike Java and further down the Samatran coast, lies just 3 degrees north of the Equator which provides consistent Waves all year round with weather conditions much the same throughout the year. Simeulue has the longest fetch out of any other Indonesian Island. It can utilize swells from the West, such as around Africa and Madagascar and does not just have to rely on Southern swells like most other Indo spots. It also picks up the full brunt of south swells as it sticks out at more of an angle than the other islands and is situated at the top of a 6km deep x 800mile + trench. Swells received here have longer lines and barrels.

What awaits you
Small Resort, Real Surf Freedom
With a maximum of only 13 guests, Moon Beach feels personal, relaxed and uncrowded from the moment you arrive. The small group size gives the surf guides much more flexibility to split surfers by ability, conditions and preference, instead of sending everyone to the same spot. Some days may be about chasing the best reef break, other days about finding a fun, empty beachie or exploring a new corner of the island. This is the kind of setup where the plan can change with the swell, wind and tide — exactly how a proper surf trip should feel.
Simeulue Still Feels Like Old Indonesia
Simeulue is one of those rare Indonesian islands that still feels adventurous, authentic and uncrowded. Quiet coastal roads, friendly local villages, tropical jungle, empty beaches and warm-water waves create the feeling of a real surf journey rather than a developed resort destination. Moon Beach gives guests a comfortable base, but the experience still has that raw Indonesian charm: checking waves by car, exploring different coastlines, meeting locals and surfing lineups that often feel far away from the mainstream surf travel map.
Built Around the Surf Trip Rhythm
Moon Beach is designed around the way surfers actually travel. Early forecast checks, surf van missions, long sessions, proper meals, pool time, board racks, photo and video options, movie nights, games and evening chats about the next day’s plan all come together naturally. The beachfront restaurant becomes the heart of the resort — a place to refuel, review surf footage, share stories and reset before the next session. It is not just accommodation near waves; it is a full surf-trip base built around surfing, exploring and relaxing.
Surf
Simeulue Surf Location
Moon Beach Surf Resort is located on Simeulue Island, off the coast of Northern Sumatra. The island receives consistent Indian Ocean swell and offers a wide range of surf spots along its southern and western coastlines.
Simeulue is exposed to both south and west swell directions, which gives it a very reliable surf window. The island picks up many of the same swells as the Mentawais, while also receiving more westerly swell lines from deeper in the Indian Ocean. Because of its position and relatively calm wind patterns, there are surfable conditions throughout much of the year.
Waves for Different Levels
One of Moon Beach’s biggest strengths is the variety of waves. Within roughly 5 to 75 minutes from the resort, there are multiple quality surf spots ranging from hollow reef breaks to more forgiving beach breaks.
The island offers:
- Point breaks
- Peaks
- Reefs
- Rivermouths
- Beach breaks
- Hollow barrels
- More mellow intermediate waves
- Playful 3–5 ft options even when swell is bigger elsewhere
This makes Moon Beach suitable for a wide range of surfers. Confident surfers can chase heavier waves, while intermediates can find more manageable conditions and improve without feeling overwhelmed.
Guided Surf Days
The resort has experienced surf guides who stay across the daily forecast, tides, wind and swell direction. Each evening, the guides discuss the best options for the following day. In the morning, they check the conditions again before making the final call.
Depending on the day, guests may surf one spot in the morning and another one or two spots in the afternoon. With multiple vehicles and the ability to split groups, the resort can match surfers to the right waves for their level rather than forcing everyone into the same session.
Land-Based Surf Access
Most surf breaks around Simeulue are accessible by land. Moon Beach uses surf vehicles with board racks to reach the island’s mainland surf spots, with multiple daily transfers included as part of the surf program.
This makes the experience different from a pure boat-based Mentawai-style trip. Guests explore the island by road, check different setups, and often surf with only other Moon Beach guests in the water.
Surf Season
Moon Beach can work year-round. From April to October, the island receives frequent larger southwest swells. From November to March, conditions are generally smaller but still consistent, with regular clean medium-sized surf.
The biggest swells usually arrive between June and August, while the quieter months can be excellent for intermediate surfers or guests who prefer fun, clean waves over heavy barrels.
Surf Support
Moon Beach offers a complete surf-focused setup, including:
- Experienced surf guides
- Surf vans with board racks
- Access to multiple breaks around the island
- Ability to split groups by ability and conditions
- Board rental for resort guests
- Ding repairs for most standard damage
- Photo and video services, subject to availability
- Speedboat access for remote waves and island missions
Activities
Beyond surfing, Simeulue offers plenty for guests who want to explore, relax or enjoy the island between sessions.
Activities can include:
- Snorkelling
- Fishing trips
- Waterfall visits
- Sunset missions
- Town visits and local shopping
- Scooter exploration
- Island day trips
- Pool time
- Table tennis
- Billiards
- Darts
- Movies
- Books and games

Moon Beach places a strong focus on generous, high-quality meals that keep guests fuelled for long days in the water. The open-air beachfront restaurant is the heart of the resort, overlooking Lantik Bay and creating a relaxed social space for meals, drinks, surf stories and evening planning.
The food is varied, fresh and satisfying, with a mix of Indonesian and Western cuisine. Guests can expect local seafood, chicken, beef, vegetarian and vegan dishes, as well as hearty favourites such as steak, burgers, pizza and handmade Mexican-style meals.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included, with meals designed around the rhythm of a surf trip. After early sessions, guests return to proper food, ocean views and a relaxed setting. In the evenings, the restaurant becomes the natural meeting point to review the day’s waves, watch surf footage, play games or plan the next day with the guides.
The resort also caters for dietary requirements, including vegetarian and vegan diets, as long as this is advised at the time of booking.
Getting There
Guests fly internationally into Medan Kuala Namu International Airport in North Sumatra. From Medan, they take a domestic flight to Simeulue Island. The domestic flight takes around one hour and usually operates on selected days of the week.
On arrival in Simeulue, Moon Beach staff meet guests at the airport and transfer them to the resort. The drive from Simeulue Airport to the resort is short and easy.
Depending on international flight timings, guests may need to overnight in Medan before or after the domestic flight.
Board Bags & Domestic Flights
Domestic flights to Simeulue have limited surfboard capacity and board fees apply. Moon Beach can advise guests on the best way to send surfboards to the island, including normal check-in, cargo, ferry or speedboat options depending on group size and timing.
The resort also has rental boards available for guests in case their own boards are delayed.
Guests should carry fins and leashes in hand luggage, so they can still surf even if board bags arrive later.
Local Culture & Dress Code
Simeulue is part of Aceh and local customs should be respected. The local community is very friendly, but modest dress is expected outside the resort grounds.
When visiting town or public areas, guests should cover shoulders and legs appropriately. Women should avoid bikinis or revealing clothing in public areas outside the resort. For remote island boat trips away from local villages, the rules are usually more relaxed.
Money & Payments
Guests should bring enough Indonesian Rupiah cash from Medan, as ATM access on Simeulue is limited and unreliable for international cards. Credit card payments are available at the resort for selected extras, but cash is still recommended for local expenses and surfboard transport logistics.
Health & Safety
Moon Beach has basic first aid at the resort and in the surf vehicles. There is a hospital near the airport with doctors available for more serious issues. Comprehensive travel insurance is mandatory for all guests.
The resort is located close to nearby hills and has a tsunami evacuation plan, with access to higher ground nearby.
Malaria & Mosquitoes
The malaria risk is considered very low in the resort area, and the resort reports no cases of malaria or dengue during many years of operation. Guests should still use mosquito repellent during early morning, late afternoon and evening, and keep room screens closed.
Travel Insurance
Comprehensive travel insurance is mandatory. It should cover surfing, medical care, evacuation, delays, lost luggage and surfboard transport issues.
Best Time to Travel
Moon Beach can be surfed year-round. The main swell season from April to October brings frequent larger southwest swells, while November to March offers consistent smaller and medium-sized waves.
Because Simeulue has multiple breaks and relatively calm wind patterns, there is usually a surfable option somewhere on the island, regardless of season.

This content is also legally protected by copyright, trademark and competition law and may not be copied, transmitted or used in any manner other than within the scope of the website without the prior express written authorisation of LUEX or the rights holder, if applicable.
LUEX shall make every effort to update information and prices at all times. Nevertheless, there may be differences due to the volume of data, information and parameters. Prices and specifications can be found based on the individually prepared offering. The booking confirmation and the price calculated for the Traveller are definitive.
LUEX is unable to monitor or check all information provided, especially links to other websites. LUEX is unable to maintain and update this content. In this respect, LUEX is unable to assume any responsibility.
3. Intermediary services
LUEX facilitates the provision of travel-related products and services by Service providers in the form of travel modules and services. LUEX is not a tour operator and does not deliver, own or control any of the travel-related products and services on offer. The travel-related products and services are delivered directly by the Service provider. The offerings provided by LUEX are intended for natural persons. In this context, the Traveller / Group leader making the booking must be at least 18 years of age. A Group leader aged 18 years or over must book for under-age travel companions. The offerings are primarily intended for Travellers from Germany. In utilising this offering, the Group leader making the booking promises that they are authorised to act on behalf of their travel companions, in particular to arrange travel-related services and to conclude contractual arrangements in the name of the Travellers. The Group leader is liable to LUEX as the joint and several debtor in addition to the individual Travellers for the payment of the travel-related products and services booked. Legally binding declarations received by the Group leader are deemed to have been received by all Travellers in the tour group.
4. Bookings
To the extent that no further commitment periods have been agreed, the following shall apply: By filling in the booking templates and confirming the booking procedure, the Traveller/Group leader commissions LUEX to finalise the intermediated procurement with the Service provider. A confirmation of receipt from LUEX with respect to an order immediately after the Traveller/Group leader has transmitted the data does not constitute a binding confirmation of the intermediated travel-related products and services.
Immediately upon receipt of the booking, LUEX shall assess the availability of all the booked products and services from the Service provider/s. Following this assessment, the Traveller/Group leader shall be issued a booking confirmation. The Traveller/Group leader is obliged to check this confirmation carefully immediately upon receipt. If information appearing on the confirmation or in another document is incorrect or incomplete, the Traveller/Group leader is obliged to inform LUEX immediately - in text form if possible. Alterations at a later point in time can only be considered if LUEX could reasonably be expected to make such changes. Unreasonable alterations are such changes in particular that involve additional costs for LUEX, unless the Traveller/Group leader reimburses these costs.
A binding agreement between the Traveller and the respective Service provider shall only eventuate when the binding booking confirmation has been transmitted to the Traveller/Group leader; the automatic LUEX confirmation of receipt is not a booking confirmation.
The following applies when a Group leader makes a booking for several Travellers: With their booking, the Group leader confirms that they are permitted to legally represent the group members (Travellers) and that the Group leader is permitted to make and receive declarations on behalf of the group members. If travel vouchers are dispatched, they shall be sent solely to the Group leader for the whole tour group. Payments shall be processed exclusively through the Group leader with debt discharging effect.
The contractual obligation of LUEX is limited to the proper intermediation of the booked travel-related products and services. The contractual obligations of LUEX do not include the delivery of the booked product or service.
5. Payments, cancellation charges
LUEX is entitled to demand payment of deposits and outstanding amounts in accordance with the general terms and conditions as well as the terms and conditions of payment of the Service provider of the mediated product or service. Payment shall be collected as instructed by the respective Service provider. It is possible that the method of payment accepted by the Service provider may differ from the standard modes of payment used by LUEX or in Germany generally. The details are to be found in each of the offerings respectively. To the extent that nothing to the contrary has been agreed, the following shall apply:
Following receipt of the payment request, payment of the deposit indicated on the payment request is to be made in a single payment within one week by means of the payment method indicated. The deposit shall be at least 25% of the total price of the travel-related products or services that have been booked. The outstanding amount for the travel-related products or services is to be paid no later than 30 days prior to the commencement of travel as a single payment by means of the payment method indicated without any further request for payment. In the case of tour groups, the Group leader is responsible for ensuring consistent payment processing. The total price of a tour booked at short notice (within 30 days of tour commencement) is due immediately.
If due payments are not made or not made in full and the Traveller/Group leader does not pay after a reminder with a final due date, LUEX or the Service provider are able to withdraw from the particular agreement, unless LUEX or the Service provider is already responsible for a significant flaw, failing or shortcoming at this time. If the Traveller is responsible for the cancellation, LUEX or the Service provider can demand compensation in accordance with the agreed fixed rates for compensation. If nothing else has been stipulated within the offer/travel confirmation, the fixed rate in the event of the Traveller cancelling more than 30 days prior to departure is 25% of the price of the tour. The Traveller/Group leader is entitled to provide evidence of lower costs or costs that did not eventuate, while LUEX is free to calculate and demonstrate substantially higher costs.
LUEX assumes no currency risks. In order to minimise currency risks, LUEX shall exchange the travel payments received into the target currency of the country of the respective Service provider as soon as possible after receipt of payment. In the event of major currency fluctuations, the Traveller/Group leader shall indemnify LUEX against any proven currency exchange losses. Reimbursements shall be made solely by means of bank transfers in the currency of the recipient. Bank fees and charges shall be borne by the Traveller/Group leader.
If the Traveller/Group leader pays by bank transfer, LUEX can only facilitate a smooth booking process if the Traveller/Group leader uses the designated booking ID in the purpose field of the bank transfer which is specified in the request for payment. Otherwise LUEX may not be able to assign the payment to the correct booking. A failure to do that correctly can result in the cancellation of a trip in the worst-case scenario.
If the Traveller wishes to book not as a private individual, but as a business traveller acting on instructions or as a legal representative, this must be noted already during the booking process and cannot be subsequently altered. This can have taxation consequences and should therefore be carefully considered.
The customer shall receive a payment receipt in the form of a booking confirmation from LUEX showing the total price, either paid or to be paid to the Service provider.
6. Alterations, cancellations, reimbursements
In the event that a confirmed booking is modified or cancelled, LUEX is to be contacted as quickly as possible in this matter such that a possible solution can be sought in consultation with the Traveller/Group leader. Additional costs that result for LUEX or the Service provider shall be borne by the Traveller/Group leader, whereby LUEX reserves the right to invoice a minimum fee of €50 for changes demanded solely by the Traveller.
Should there be a modification or cancellation by LUEX / the Service provider, LUEX shall also contact the Traveller/Group leader as soon as possible and seek a possible solution.
LUEX notes explicitly that as an intermediary LUEX cannot assume responsibility for the performance of the Service provider. In particular, LUEX offers individual travel-related products and services to exotic destinations. The Traveller recognises that booking and processing these products and services are more difficult and that a higher degree of flexibility is expected of these than for mass tourism.
7. Complaints and ratings
Should the Traveller be dissatisfied with an aspect of the travel-related product or service received in a particular case and wish to submit a complaint, they are to approach the Service provider or their representative directly at the location during their current stay so that this person can attempt to solve the problem. LUEX recommends notifying the Service provider in text form that documents the shortcomings, if possible with the aid of photos.
If the problem cannot be resolved during the stay, the Service provider must be contacted within 30 days of returning from the trip. The Service provider should then respond to the correspondence according to the applicable laws and regulations. Receipt should be confirmed in 14 days and a full response received within 28 days. If this is not the case, an explanation for the delay should be received from the Service provider.
Should the travel-related product or service not match the description on the LUEX platform, the customer must approach the Service provider or their representative directly at the location during the customer's stay. LUEX shall support customers with respect to their complaint. LUEX is to be informed of the facts involved in the situation as soon as possible in order to be able to assist in finding a solution.
The Service provider is to be contacted immediately in the event of flight or transportation problems. Customers are to check information and the general terms and conditions given to customers via the Service provider before the commencement of travel.
8. Visa, passport and travel regulations
The Traveller/Group leader shall pay attention to the special visa, passport and travel regulations for the Travellers and their country of destination. LUEX makes every effort to inform customers as comprehensively and accurately as possible. To the extent that LUEX draws attention to particular details, this can only be considered as non-binding information. Considering the high number and frequency of possible amendments to regulations, Travellers/Group leaders are requested to contact the relevant embassy/consulate for the particular destination. In this respect LUEX can assume no responsibility whatsoever for any assurance, guarantee, currency or accuracy of the information. The information provided by Travellers’ ministries of foreign affairs are a reliable source with respect to many travel destinations.
It is the sole responsibility of the Traveller/Group leader to ensure that all Travellers are in possession of all requisite travel documents (passport, Visa, etc.) at the commencement of travel and that all Travellers fulfil the health requirements.
9. Insurance
To the extent that it is not expressly offered, insurance cover does not constitute part of the travel-related products and services offered. LUEX recommends that customers take out travel insurance, in particular travel cancellation cost insurance and in certain circumstances overseas travel insurance, including an overseas health cover component. LUEX names a reliable partner offering the relevant insurance policies to its customers at: http://www.luex.com/info/insurances.html.
10. Liability, responsibility
LUEX depends on the information provided to it by the Service providers with respect to the details of the travel-related goods and services. LUEX has only extremely limited opportunities to check such information with respect to their accuracy and completeness. Consequently, LUEX is unable to provide any guarantees or assurances with respect to the completeness, accuracy or currency of such information. The same applies for any other information made available by third parties.
LUEX is not liable for the availability of the travel-related product or service at the time of booking or for the performance of the booked travel-related product or service by the Service provider.
Within the scope of its performance obligations, LUEX is only liable for any losses that may result in the following cases, irrespective of legal grounds: The statutory regulations shall apply with the following restriction: Liability or minor negligence on the part of LUEX or its vicarious agents is excluded, provided that neither an essential contractual obligation was breached nor is there a case of initial incapacity, impossibility or default on the part of LUEX. Otherwise liability is limited to the value of the travel-related products and services booked, in any case however to predictable and typical losses. The exclusions of liability or facilitation shall apply in the same manner to the executive bodies of LUEX, as well as to their vicarious agents.
Travellers and Group leaders shall be liable to LUEX for each and every reservation/booking that is made in bad faith or with deceitful intent or with erroneous or incomplete personal data. The opportunity to book travel-related goods and services may only be utilised in order to make legal bookings as a Traveller or as a Group leader for a third party. At the same time, in utilising the offerings the Group leader guarantees that they are authorised and are permitted to act in the name of fellow travellers. In the event that there is a breach of these guarantee, the Group leader is liable without limitation to LUEX and their respective Service providers for the losses resulting from the aforesaid person’s actions.
In many countries there are safety standards that differ from those generally found in Europe, Australia or the USA. Travelers/Group leaders are strongly encouraged, also in their own interest, to access information once again immediately before commencing travel in accessible sources, such as the internet pages of the Foreign Office, with respect to changes in the travel regulations and safety warnings for the country of destination.
11. Final provisions
Should business terms and conditions or parts of the agreement be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining parts of the agreements shall not be affected.
Amendments or additions to all agreements, including a divergence from these general terms and conditions, are only possible in text form (written, by fax or e-mail). Oral agreements require written confirmation to be valid.
All communication between LUEX and a Traveller/Group leader is to be undertaken by e-mail if possible. The Traveller/Group leader therefore promises to receive and read e-mails and implement the information/instructions from LUEX accordingly. LUEX must be informed immediately of changes in contact details.
All contractual relations between LUEX, its customers and Service providers are subject exclusively to German law - with the exception of the UN Contract for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) convention. Köln shall be the mutually agreed place of jurisdiction for non-German Travellers.
