General Description
Remote, no crowds, some of the most pristine waves and powerful waves in the Solomon Islands.
Best time of the year is Nov to Feb, for wind and swell. The swell comes from the North and East, it can be very powerful at times, other times it's moderate.
Tides are irrelevant, just wind dependent, most mornings and evenings are the best.
Waves can range from 3 foot to 10 foot, it can be epic, the right is similar to HT's in Indo, without the crowd/boat factor.
There are heaps of waves in the area, it's mostly uninhabited, one of the last frontiers of surfing on the planet
