THE BEST SURF LOCATION ON EARTH
There is no other surfing island on the earth like Kandui Island. With over 15 waves on our island alone, there is literally something for everyone. Whether it’s the 2 best barreling waves in the world, Kandui Left and Rifles or the fun waves of 4Bobs and Karangbat Left, no other island in this world compares. Throw in 30 additional waves within a 30-minute boat ride, no surfing location comes remotely close.

The Heart of the Island: Restaurant & Floating Dock
When you’re not in the water, the heart of the Outer Reef x Kandui experience beats in our vibrant restaurant and iconic floating dock. Our locally inspired menu, crafted by skilled chefs blends the best of Western and Indonesian flavours, making every meal a highlight. We believe in honest hospitality: Bintangs are still just $1, mixed drinks $3.75, and you’ll always find a cold one on the house at our daily dock happy hour. There’s no better place to swap stories, unwind after a session, or simply soak up the Mentawai sunset.
The floating dock, just steps from the famous 4Bobs break, is the social hub of Kandui Resort. It’s where new friendships are made, surf stories are shared, and every afternoon brings free Bintangs and unbeatable views. There’s no better happy hour in the Mentawais period.
