Nameless Perfection In Indonesia

It’s okay to be a touch jealous of Mikala Jones’ life.

Mikala Jones traded in his life on Oahu a few years back and now resides at Canggu, Bali. For some, moving away from the winter offerings of the North Shore may seem like absurdity, but when you trade in populated Rocky Point for uncrowded and unnamed Indo perfection, the right choice becomes a touch more obvious.

Mikala might not be at the forefront of progression, but it would be hard to complain when you spend your time surfing waves like the above – and from what we can tell there aren’t too many others to share it with either. 

The spot in question is without a name yet (or so we’re told) and let’s hope it stays that way, because in the age of Instagram and global exposure it’s hard to keep a wave of this caliber under wraps for long.
