Wilkes Passage Spot Guide

Breaking around the southern tip of a barrier reef located to the northwest of Namotu Island, Wilkes Pass is a powerful, lengthy right-hander that is open to virtually all swell and wind, making it consistent but somewhat fickle. One of the longer waves in Fiji, Wilkes starts with a relatively standard takeoff, proceeds through a number of stretched out sections, and ends in a shallow bowl section. Tends to be a few feet bigger than Swimming Pools and Namotu Left due to its exposure to swell.
