- Rocks
It's about 30 minutes from Nias but well worth the drive when Nias has size as there are few people. A great right that tubes and nice smooth walls.
Atmosphere
This is one of my favorite waves.
General
Nice spot and you can buy basic food and drink from the guy who lives in front. Be nice to the locals as they are known to not put up with foreign pricks!!

no secret - i have surfed it about 2-3 foot. ok little wave. i dont know about it being much of a secret spot, not really for beginners. kinda cheesed out with the name "rock stars", might be called that cause of where it breaks. surfing it you ll feel like one as the whole village watchs you surf. peace
