点评:Surfing at Gerupuk is a complete joke — and not in the fun, laugh-it-off kind of way. The place is overcrowded, overpriced, and polluted, and the whole setup feels like one big tourist trap.
The lineup is an absolute mess. It’s packed shoulder-to-shoulder with beginners who don’t know how to control their boards or follow any surf etiquette. If you value your board (or your safety), think twice — it’s only a matter of time before someone dings your gear or sends a loose board flying at your head.
And then there’s the boat situation — it’s borderline extortion. You have to pay for a boat just to get to the waves, every single time, and the prices are inflated way beyond what’s reasonable. It quickly adds up, and for what? To surf in water that looks like a cup of coffee and smells like it came straight from the sewer.
Seriously, the water is disgusting — murky brown, full of rubbish, and likely to give you a tropical ear infection or worse. You’ll be paddling through a constant soup of floating trash: plastic, food waste, and who knows what else. It honestly feels like surfing at the edge of a rubbish dump.
To top it off, many of the local surf shops and so-called “guides” are little more than scammers. Boards mysteriously come back damaged or swapped, “rentals” are overpriced for low-quality gear, and anything left unattended may as well be gone. It’s sad, but theft and dodgy business practices are rampant — you’re treated like a walking ATM, not a guest.
There are so many better places to surf in Lombok and throughout Indonesia. Cleaner, friendlier, less crowded, and with a much better vibe. Gerupuk is just a cash grab with trashy water and a sketchy scene.
Do yourself a favour: skip Gerupuk. It's not worth the hype, the money, or the risk.
翻译:在格鲁普克冲浪简直就是个笑话——而且绝对不是那种让人一笑置之的玩笑。这里人满为患,物价高昂,污染严重,整个环境感觉就像一个巨大的旅游陷阱。
冲浪队伍简直乱成一团。摩肩接踵地挤满了初学者,他们既不懂如何控制冲浪板,也不懂任何冲浪礼仪。如果你很在意你的冲浪板(或者你的安全),那就三思而后行——迟早有人会撞坏你的装备,或者把松散的冲浪板砸到你的头上。
还有船的问题——简直就是敲诈。每次你都得花钱买船才能去冲浪,而且价格还被抬得离谱,远超合理范围。这些钱很快就累积起来了,为了什么?就为了在看起来像一杯咖啡、闻起来像下水道里的水里冲浪。
说真的,这里的水真恶心——浑浊的棕色,满是垃圾,很可能会把你弄得耳朵发炎,甚至更糟。你会划过不断漂浮的垃圾:塑料、食物残渣,还有谁知道还有什么。说实话,感觉就像在垃圾堆边冲浪一样。
更糟糕的是,许多当地的冲浪商店和所谓的“导游”都不过是骗子。冲浪板莫名其妙地被损坏或调换了,“租赁”的劣质装备价格过高,任何无人看管的东西都可能消失殆尽。令人难过的是,盗窃和不正当的商业行为猖獗——你被当作一台行走的自动取款机,而不是客人。
在龙目岛和整个印度尼西亚,有很多更好的冲浪地点。更干净、更友好、人更少,而且氛围也好得多。Gerupuk 只是一个圈钱的平台,水质脏乱,景色简陋。
给自己一个机会:别去 Gerupuk 了。它不值得这么炒作,不值得花钱,也不值得冒这个险。
