From Oman to Mauritania, Haiti to Comoros, Liberia to Algeria, surfEXPLORE is a collective dedicated to surfing exploration. Since 2007, we’ve traveled the world in search of new waves and deep cultural immersion. These images of rarely-touched lineups prove it.

We could easily do this entire feature on waves in Indonesia alone, such is the quantity and quality of waves available throughout the 17 000 islands of the archipelago. This reef is both tide and swell sensitive, only breaking like this two or three times a season on the biggest of Indian Ocean swells and a strong incoming tide. Image: Callahan/surfEXPLORE
