Surfing Sejorong
A right reef in West Sumbawa, Indonesia, for intermediate and advanced surfers.
Sejorong is a bay south of Maluk in west Sumbawa, with a right over the reef at one end and beach-break peaks along the sand. There's usually nobody there.
The right only works now and then, on a bigger south-west swell in the dry season, but when it does it has long walls and sometimes a hollow section. On smaller days the beach peaks are the option.
It's 15 minutes from Maluk by scooter, and there's one warung with noodles and coconuts. Bring water and everything else you need. A good choice for a quieter day between sessions at Super Suck or Scar Reef.

Getting there
Where to stay: Each wave has its village, decide which break you came for and sleep in front of it. Rantung/Sekongkang has the widest choice of rooms; Maluk town has the ATMs and shops. Everything books out when Supersuck lights up on a dry-season south swell.
Transport, costs, where to stay and the rest of the waves in the area are in the West Sumbawa guide.
