The surf season is October to April.  Swell is usually 2 to 6 feet but can be bigger. At the destination area of Surf Solomons the best swell comes from long period north Pacific lows. We offer a surf zone with a very wide swell window open to the full range of NE to NW and E to SE swells. Its a rare day that we cannot find a quality wave to surf. There are no crowds - our groups will be the only people surfing the area.

A sample of the breaks:

Arekwao

A fun left that works on more easterly swells.

Toi
This is considered the premier wave by many who come on our trips. In the right conditions its a fast, powerful, world class right hander. Has barelling sections and becomes a heavy slabbing wave detonating on the reef over 6 foot. Smaller than that and its a fun, fast and joyful wave to surf. Catches all available swell and is often bigger than other breaks in the area.

The mountain
This is a consistent left on most swell directions and sizes. The break has two distinct peaks that sometimes connect making for a long, powerful, walling wave. On bigger swells it comes into its own. This wave suits all types of surfing (short board, fish and mals).

Tai
This reef passage is a real swell magnet and there is pretty much always a wave to be had on the incoming tide here even if its flat everywhere else. It breaks more like a beach break with shifting left and right peaks. On a good day there can be some fun, peaky and fast waves. Its surfable up to 4 foot.

On the inside is a magic hollow left called Beacons that breaks when the swell is up and is offshore in conditions when many other waves are blown out.

Charlies right

A very consistent right hander that breaks on incoming tides almost every day. Its a short, fast wave with a number of walling sections and an easy barrell. Very fun when its small and even when the swells up it does not get as heavy here as some other nearby breaks.

'The island' rights

Barrelling right hander surfed by a very lucky few - for 14 day trips only.

Kwanala
Swell direction and wind have to be just right and when they are this right is one of the best waves in the area (N to NE swells with glassy conditions). On lower tides it can be a very hollow wave with the wall of the wave increasing as it runs down the reef. On smaller swells and at higher tide it breaks wider on the reef and is a very fun, punchy wave. There is a lot of sea life around this break.

Billy's Left

A magic left surfed for the first time in 2009 season. Named after Billy Bain who came with his Dad, Rob on a trip at the end of the seaons. Set up likened to Macaronis in the Mentawis.

Piccininies
A consistent right breaking close to a very scenic village. Expect the whole village to come out and join in surfing on bits of timber! A fun wave.

Nines

Likened to HT's in the Mentawis. This wave was a new discovery in the 2009/2010 season. A fast barelling wave all the way down the line - barelling from 2 foot upwards - we dont yet how big this wave is surfable. This is a serious wave for advanced surfers. Named for the nine second barrells observed here.

Kofiiloco

This a beatiful river mouth wave breaking on river stones ideal for long boards and fish type boards. Likened to Noosa point for its perfect longboaring shape. As featured in upcoming Pacific Longboard magazine. Its a consistent spot that almost always has a wave.

Never surfed
There are dozens of lefts and rights in the areas of our expeditions that have great potential but have never been surfed. A unique opportunity is there to be the first person to ever surf a reef break!
