There is some awesome surfing around Namotu Island. Please use our map on the left to explore some of the featured spots.
Hint: Zoom in to take a closer look
Namotu Left is a world class reef break that's more forgiving than it's fearsome neighbour Cloudbreak. From six to fifteen feet, Namotu left can be the thrill of a lifetime, but from two to six foot, shortboard, fish, longboarder or SUPper's paradise, and easily one of the longest rides in the region.
If you’re thinking "playful" and "warm" and "fun" then you have the right impression of Swimming Pools, a reef-break right coming up out of the deep ocean. Popular with longboarders, stand up paddle boards and shortboarders alike, Swimming Pools has the speed and power and length to do all those things you daydream about.
About a mile northwest of Namotu Island, across the channel, Wilkes Pass is a powerful right barrel that breaks on the southern tip of a long barrier reef.
A long often hollow and perfect left along a reef directly in front of the restaurant on Tavarua Island Resort. Restaurants is not as exposed to swell as Cloudbreak, but during a smaller swell and at higher tides, Restaurants can be any surfer's fantasy having often been called a 'skate park' in the water.
When the wind and swell aren't perfect for Namotu Left or Cloudbreak, they can be perfect for Tavarua Rights - a fun wave on the southeast side of Tavarua Island. Great for a long or shortboard.
Cloudbreak is just about three miles straight south of Namotu Island. A world class left reef pass that is regularly voted one of the 10 Best/Most challenging waves in the world. Like many tropical reef-pass breaks, Cloudbreak tends to get faster, shallower and more critical as it goes.
Farther northwest up the barrier reef from Wilkes Pass, Desperations is a right and left peak that breaks off a point. Desperations is the go-to-spot when the ocean is having an off day, and consistent in its size when everywhere else has nothing to offer. Desperations is guaranteed to be better than 90% of the waves most surfers leave behind at home.
