KERAMAS
BEST TIME TO TRAVEL:
WET SEASON – DECEMBER THROUGH TO MARCH
Golden Monkey was a well-kept secret for 20 years, but a new road changed all that. A world-class hollow right, peeling off over a black lava ledge, a bit like Off The Wall. Gets very crowded with hot locals and visiting pros. There are a couple of beach breaks on the walk in to avoid the crowds.
Keramas is a heavy barrelling right with a fast first section that breaks over volcanic rock. The mid section can throw out further than the wave is high before closing out but then can sometimes open up with a shoulder made for high performance maneuvers
You will often see aerials being performed on the last section
