Pulau Pisang Right (Banana Island Right) is a powerful right-hand reef break located on the exposed side of Banana Island. Known for its speed and clean lines, the wave offers long walls and occasional barrel sections that reward confident surfers willing to commit to the takeoff.
The break receives plenty of swell energy from the Indian Ocean and can handle larger surf than many of the mainland spots. On quality swells, the wave produces fast, performance-oriented sections that allow for powerful turns and high-speed surfing from start to finish.
Its remote location helps keep crowds low throughout most of the season, making it an excellent option for experienced surfers seeking quality waves away from the more popular breaks around Krui. When conditions align, Banana Island Right delivers some of the most memorable right-hand rides in the region.
Boat access is usually the most practical way to reach the break.
Watch several sets before paddling out to identify the main takeoff zone and channel.
The reef becomes significantly shallower on lower tides.
Bring water, wax, and any essentials, as facilities are limited near the break.
Check the wind forecast before making the trip, as clean offshore conditions make a significant difference in wave quality.

Secret Spots & Hidden GemsBeyond the main breaks, the Krui coastline hides dozens of lesser-known waves that only break on specific swells, tides, and winds. Part of the Slab Krui experience is exploring these hidden gems with our guides, who possess intimate knowledge gained through years of daily surf checks and local relationships.
These spots range from isolated beach breaks accessible only by boat to perfect A-frame peaks that appear only during certain tidal ranges. Some work on big west swells, others light up during rare northwest swells. A few are so fickle they might only break a handful of times per year — but when they do, they rival the best waves anywhere.
We intentionally don't publish information about these waves online. They're shared experiences between guides and guests, rewards for those willing to trust local knowledge and embrace adventure. Some of the best sessions of your trip may happen at breaks you'd never find on your own, riding waves without names on maps, creating memories that belong only to those who were there.
Local Tips: Trust your guide's recommendations. If they suggest checking an obscure spot instead of surfing the obvious choice, there's always a good reason. These hidden waves often offer the best combination of quality and empty lineups. Be respectful of their location — don't share GPS coordinates or detailed descriptions on social media.
Matching Waves to Your Ability Understanding your own skill level honestly is crucial for both safety and enjoyment. Our guides are experienced at reading surfers' abilities and will help match you with appropriate breaks. Don't feel pressured to surf beyond your comfort zone — Krui offers quality waves for every level, and there's no shame in choosing fun over fear.
That said, this is also a place to push your boundaries safely. Under guidance and with the right conditions, intermediate surfers often surprise themselves by successfully riding waves they thought were beyond their reach. The uncrowded lineups, warm water, and supportive atmosphere create ideal conditions for progression.
Each morning, we assess conditions across multiple breaks and help plan sessions based on swell, wind, tide, and your goals for the day. Want to challenge yourself? We'll find the right wave. Need a confidence-building session? We know where to go. Just want maximum fun with minimum consequences? We've got spots for that too.
