The wave
Jenny's Rights breaks near Tanjung Setia and is one of the few good rights on this coast. It's fussy about wind and tide, which keeps the crowd down.
Most days it's shifty and sectiony. With a clean SW swell, mid tide and an early east wind it lines up into proper barrels with fast exits. The camp owners will tell you when it's on.
Watch it before you paddle out, because which sections make changes through the session. Advanced surfers only when it's working; the inside is shallow. A fast shortboard works best.
