About This Spot
Nungas is a beach break located on the southwestern coast of Lombok, Indonesia, characterized by a northwest-facing sandy beach with adjacent reef structures. The spot sits at the interface between the Indian Ocean swell and protected near-shore waters, creating a segmented break pattern visible in the imagery. The shallow turquoise zones indicate coral and reef infrastructure that moderates wave energy but creates navigation hazards. Average conditions feature small waves (1.22m) and very light winds (3.6 knots), making this a protected environment suitable for beginners developing fundamental skills. The near-zero wind reliability suggests thermal winds dominate during specific times of day rather than consistent trade patterns. Best conditions occur with northeast winds providing side-shore approaches. The visible agricultural development and scattered structures inland indicate moderate accessibility. This spot suits beginners and early-intermediate kiters seeking sheltered conditions with minimal consequences, though progression is limited by consistently small waves. Water temperature around 27.7°C permits minimal protection. Kiters should be cautious of reef hazards during lower water levels and expect highly variable conditions.
