Playgrounds is the most user-friendly wave on Nusa Lembongan, an A-frame reef break closest to shore that works on the widest tide range.
An A-frame peak produces both lefts and rights over sharp coral. The wave is more forgiving than other Lembongan breaks, with workable walls and occasional cover-ups. Works from low through high tide, making it the most accessible option.
Dry season (April-September) with S-SW swells. All tides work. SE offshore winds. The most consistent break on the island.
Closest to shore of all Lembongan breaks. Short paddle or wade out from the beach.
