English (Traduzir este texto em Português): If you decide to come to Mentawais you can do it from March to November;due to their position in the Indian Ocean the islands are exposed to the South-Southwest swells,so from March to April the waves are smaller but consistent as well….Then they will become stronger in May. The same happens to the ending of October and the beginning of November: smaller but consistent waves again. From April to October strong swells from South Africa and Antartica reach our coral reefs carrying amazing waves that roll into clean and perfect barrels…… Now you can plan your trip thinking of this: if your choice is NO crowded and easier surfing we suggest you to book in March, April,October and November,if you like to play rough you must book from May to September! Surfline suggests Mentawai in August is the Best Bet in the world. (source : http://surfthementawai.com)

- The link below has accurate timetables as well as transfer cost both for ferries and speed boats to Siberut or Tueapejat in Sipora.
www.mentawai-surfcamp.com/mentawai-ferry.shtml
Contact "the mentawai shadow" facebook for experienced local speed boat transfers to mentawai and waves with good guides. Accomodation in Nyang Nyang is cheap but you need to bring most of your supplies...beware of thieves...staying in a camp or a boat will bring in the benefits...

A few years ago - A few years ago there was very basic huts on the beach and you had to take all your food and water, no village on nyang nyang, but now the area has upgraded, there is now two surf camps on the island pit stop hill(pitstops) and mentawai bungalow (e-bay)(both have websites )maybee you could stay on other island or at village,but its very hardcore/rough and you really need either a guide or to spreak bahasa indonesia, i did it with a local jakarta surfer, but we still got hassled by police and had problems getting to wave, so in the end it wasn't as cheap as i thought it would be.

No such thing as a reliable time table - Ferry service changes from day to day, if ferry can't go due to weather, or broken etc, your stuck
Nyang Nyang is a hoax, local familys have got together and set a price which is way to high for what you pay(you can get a hotel in other parts of Indo), you get a smokey leaking no electricity, no toilet,no food, no shower, its rough but with a $ price, rip off area needs good swell to get in, so pitstops or long walk to pussys is only real options (crowded), tried to hire boat, what a rip off, this feral living with $ price tag, better pying a bit extra and staying at a camp/resort...never again :(
