Papua Adventures - Off the Map Surfing Tour, Biak and Supiori Island, Papua

Just a few years ago, pioneering surfers stumbled on this location while exploring around Biak Island in Papua. On a particularly remote stretch of rainforest coastline, pristine waves were discovered with no surfers. The break is a perfect A frame; a peak with a right and left barrel. There are nine different set-ups in a 10 km radius, with other breaks yet to be explored.
The potential for riding waves with no other surfers is limitless.

Papua Adventures can take you to this location from Biak town by chartered automobile. Once at the location, motorbikes will be provided for local transportation to the surfing breaks.

While this is not a tourist area, we have secured local accommodation in a house with 4 bedrooms, a spacious dining area and kitchen. Comfortable mattresses and mosquito nets are provided. A local cook will be provided for all meals.

Due to its remote location, few surfers will attempt this great adventure. The waves will be free from crowds found elsewhere in Indonesia.

Biak Island lies one degree south of the equator in the Pacific Ocean. The locals are laid back, friendly, betel nut chewing Papuans. Their hospitality is heartwarming. You will make friends here to remember. Biak is famous for it€™s fire walking over red-hot stones. This is currently practiced in certain villages.

Between surfing, many activities are available such as snorkeling on coral reefs, jungle trekking and exploring pristine rain forest waterfalls.

In the effort of controlling the flow of tourists, this tour will be limited to 5 persons per trip with a minimum of 2 people to run a trip.

We are registered and licensed as PT. Biak Papua Adventures and stand behind our name and reputation. Please be advised about touring with non-licensed guides in Papua, as they are known to use deceptive practices to entice travelers to go with them. Low cost tours will almost certainly have hidden costs revealed to you only after you arrive. They can be very steep and you will have no choice but to pay or get left behind. Should this happen you will not get your money back nor will you get any help from the police. It would be a shame for you to come all this way and spend so much money only to go home disappointed with an empty and unhappy feeling, so please, for your own protection and security, and to avoid problems in general, choose a licensed company that will explain all costs clearly to you before you leave your home.

At Papua Adventures we are working hard to give you the best experience you can possibly have and you are able to rest assured that the adventure you are paying for is the one you will get!
