 Cloudbreak
( 10 minutes boat ride)/ Goofy
Situated
in shallow water, the fast outer-reef wave produces majestic walls
and barrels.
Cloudbreak is a complex wave. Wave choice is critical,
so count the waves in a set and pick the best take-off spot when
you first pull up in the boat.Thick, fast-moving lefts can hit
different parts of the reef at a number of angles. occasionally
clean, long-interval groundswells do turn Cloudbreak into an
amazing one-section
wave. Ride length: 150m to 300m; on a good day up to 500m

Restaurants
is one of the most perfect, machine-like waves on Earth. The ideal
size for Restaurants is between 3-8 feet with a medium to high
tide essential to cover up the dangerous reef that lurks below.
It is typically
half
the size of Cloudbreak and requires a slightly larger swell to
break but when it does it has to be one of the best lefts anywhere.

Fiji's world class righthander, same quality
of waves as the famous Cloudbreak wave. An open-ocean reef-pass wave northwest of Namotu Island, totally
exposed to swell and all wind, rising straight out of very deep water
at the southern tip of Malolo Barrier Reef. It's a fairly reasonable
take-off followed by a long, warping wall with some great speed sections,
ending in a shallow bowl. A good regular-foot's alternative to Namotu
Left or Tavarua. The best
wind direction is northeast.Best around high tide .normal length
is long.

' This beautiful right breaks best
when the waves are in the shoulder to overhead range. It's possible
to catch a left here, but be careful,
the reef gets very shallow.' |

' Mini break is a great wave to surf.
It's a hollow, barreling left, hiding in the middle of the ocean.
It only breaks on a big swell, and if the forecast says 6-7 ft swell,
Mini's will be head high and perfect.
The Namotu and Tavarua boat
rarely drive there. So most times you have the waves all to yourself!!' |

'About 5-10 minutes past Wilks, Desperation
has several peaks, both lefts and rights.
When the surf is too small
or crowded at Wilks, Desperation is your best bet.
This break is
usually 1-2 ft higher than the other nearby breaks.
Not the best
choice if the waves are too big, because the several peaks and
extra size make it difficult to get out of the inside.'
