About This Break
Hookers is an often-overlooked left-hand reef break on the northern coastline of Sipora Island. Tucked into a scenic tropical bay near Icelands and Tikus, Hookers can produce long, fast walls and powerful barrel sections when the swell and wind align.
The wave is less consistent than many of its famous neighbors, but when a solid west or southwest swell wraps into the reef, Hookers can transform into an excellent performance wave. Its multiple sections offer opportunities for high-speed carving, powerful turns, and occasional deep tube rides.
Because Hookers is relatively fickle and less frequently visited by surf charters, surfers can sometimes enjoy quality waves with very few others in the lineup. The combination of remote tropical scenery, fast left-hand surf, and uncrowded conditions makes Hookers a rewarding destination for experienced surfers exploring the Mentawais.
