Vanimo

The break.

Left reefIntermediateMixed

Lido, the north coast

A left reef on the north coast of Papua New Guinea, at Lido, not the town jetty. Vanimo is a border town near Indonesia, a village peak, warm water, a takeoff people still fly for. The road is the last story. The reef is the session.

When.

October to April

North swell in the wet months. A small day is just the lagoon.

Worth knowing.

1. 1. Lido is the village. The town of Vanimo is the shops, not the takeoff.
2. 2. The reef is close. Watch a set from the sand before you paddle.
3. 3. October to April is the window people name. The rest of the year can still have a morning.
4. 4. This is a real trip, not a weekend from a hub airport.

Go.
