Mentawais 2025 – A Season to Remember 🌊🏝️

Endless Waves Since May

2026 is shaping up as one of the best seasons we’ve seen in years. Since early May, the waves simply haven’t stopped. Back-to-back swells rolled in with almost no flat spells, and most days brought calm winds — the kind of rhythm every surfer dreams about.

24+ Waves Firing on All Cylinders

With over 24 surf spots surrounding our bay, it’s been pure non-stop action.

World-Class Waves

Heavy hitters like Nokandui, Bankvaults, Hideaways, Ebay, Pistols, and Rifles lit up with perfect conditions, delivering unforgettable sessions for both traveling surfers and local chargers.

Fun & Friendly Sessions

At the same time, playful waves such as Beng Beng, Nipussi, A-Frames, 4 Bobs, Karamba Left, Burgerworld and many others kept the stoke high for every level of surfer.

Epic Moments Captured 🎥

We’ve been documenting everything this season. Don’t miss the highlights on our YouTube channel — from fun sessions to absolutely epic days.

Watch surfers like our ambassadors and friends Vini Pereira, Bruno Santos and the young charger Kailani Renno who drop and made what seems to be so far, the wave of the seasons at Bankvaults.

One standout: Rifles, one of Indonesia’s best righthanders, breaking with size, perfection, and style. Brazilians Ro Saldanha, Victor Ferreira, and Gabriel Kesser were here scoring wave after wave, almost turning the resort into their second home.

Legends Back in Paradise

And it doesn’t stop here! On August 19th, 2026, our brother Pedro Boonman landed for another magical run. Tomorrow, Anthony Walsh arrives with his family, ready to join the dream sessions in paradise.

  • Pedro Boonman → Tube specialist, mixing in radical airs and savage laybacks.
  • Anthony Walsh → Another barrel master, who also captures insane action with his cameras and drones.

We couldn’t be more stoked to have these legends back.
