🌞 Spring'25 Drop 2: Permanent Vacation Available Now 🌞

In search of empty line ups, turquoise blue water and white sand beaches, we decided to take the long way. The long way, took us by way of Lombok and we definitely were not complaining. A tropical paradise with its deep blue oceans and jungle-clad vistas, Lombok was an oasis of fun waves, good laughs and even better food.
We decided to head to Lombok because Bali was having one of it's moments, where swell direction wasn't right, winds were too strong and the crowds were unbearable. Also, we wanted some fun right handers...a rare commodity in Bali.

We took off during Ramadan, which had it's pros and cons....but mainly cons. Cons being - everything happens at a much sower pace because many businesses are closed & yet Bali is packed to capacity with tourists and traffic. On a semi impulsive decision, we opted for the overnight local ferry to Lombok instead of flying because we wanted flexibility to explore the deserted coastline.
Little did we know that our impulsive decision would be one of our worst ones.
What should have been a 6-7 hour trip, door to door, turned into a 12+ hour trip. 1 hour turned 2, turned to 3 hours simply waiting to board the ferry at Padang Bai. Squeezed between precariously overloaded trucks, we finally boarded around 1:30am. Grabbing some questionable mattress from the crew, we hauled ass up to the roof of the ferry and quickly fell asleep to the rumble of the engine and smell of diesel fuel.
Foolishly hoping to catch a sunrise surf season in Lombok, we woke to realize we were sitting heavy in the Port of Lembar and waited patiently for our ferry's turn to dock.

But the long trip, was totally worth it. Our days spent in Lombok were filled with long drives on dirt roads, new experiences and undiscovered views. Compared to Bali's humid, lush, tropical landscapes, Lombok's was relatively dry & barren, with vast empty spaces and bare panoramic views. With our car and small boats, we scored secluded, beautiful and unusual spots to surf, protected from the wind, with clear waters and right-hand point breaks.

Sunburnt and with bellies aching from laughing too much, we reluctantly headed back to the hustle and bustle of Bali, but knew we would soon return to Lombok for some more of it's unique beauty and charm.

I’ve been wearing the Atoll Bikini Top lounging in the sun and staying active at the beach—it’s quickly become my go-to. The fit is true to size and feels super supportive thanks to the molded elastic under the bust and adjustable straps. I love how soft the fabric is, and it is such a flattering fit without feeling restrictive.
As someone who’s in and out of the ocean all the time, I appreciate that it holds up well in saltwater and sun—and the UPF 50+ protection is a huge bonus. Plus, the fact that it’s made from regenerated materials like ghost nets and ocean plastic makes me feel good about wearing it!
As a minimal, stylish piece that fits well & feels good, I'd highly recommend!
I have never felt more supported and hugged by a suit. The fabric is the top notch quality. I’m heavy on the chest so it is normally such a struggle to find a surf suit that fits perfect. I can surf in this suit without it moving at all! Couldn’t suggest this suit more!! Also side note.. FAV pilates and yoga outfit as well!! Will be wearing this suit all day everyday this summer!!
I've been wearing my September Atoll Top and Lucky bottoms to the pool and the beach and just love the classic fit. It's super elegant and functional, so I can lounge in it or be active and take it out to the surf! The Lagoon Green Stripe print is super fun too and makes me feel like I'm surfing in the 60s which is such a vibe.
This bikini supports good and stays in place while surfing this was exactly what I needed! I can not believe how comfortable with this bottom, highly recommend 🙌🙌🙌
This is one of my favorite one pieces to surf in! The material is soooo silky smooth and it fits snug but comfy. The back detail is cute and it doesn’t move around even in big surf! If it’s a sunny day I like to throw a cropped rash guard over it.
I’m 5’3” and am wearing XS (My usual size AU6) it fits me perfect. The print and color is super cute and standing out in the water. This suit is also so comfortable and You don't need to worry anything while surfing. Defiantly recommend!!
I purchased this item few months ago, I enjoyed it very much.
I believe this is the prettiest bikini I ever had. The fit is very flattering, the fabric is simply beautiful and really well made. I'm in awe. Needed to exchange for a different size (only the top) and the whole process was easy. I cannot wait for my second purchase!
Great colour and design
Love how the material feels and the color!
Great piece
Love this green and white pattern and the easy fit!
The Scorpion top is fantastic! I love the high neck and long sleeves for sun protection. The ribbed texture is a nice touch, and the quality is amazing. It feels so luxurious and super comfy. It pairs wonderfully with either the Lucky or Eros bottom. Definitely a great addition to my swimwear collection!
I recently picked up the Eros bottom, and it’s my new favorite for surfing this season. It’s cheekier than the Lucky, which I like, and the high waist is super flattering. Plus, it stays put, even in big waves. The quality is top-notch and totally luxury. Definitely my go-to for the recent summer swells.
I just got the Topanga surf top, and it's awesome! It's like a sports bra, super comfy, and it stays put. The quality is great, really sturdy and holds up well in the water. Plus, it fits perfectly true to size. Definitely a solid choice for any surf day!
