Batu Karas

Batu Karas is an SSE-facing point break in Pangandaran, West Java, Indonesia. It picks up swell from ESE to SW and SW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 44% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNW: light winds or NNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSE onshores chop it up.
