Beautiful Landscape View of Lampuuk Beach

Lhoknga Beach is directly facing the Indian Ocean and is becoming famous for it's surfing (though some of local surfers would prefer to keep it a secret).

Lhoknga Beach has the best of all surf conditions with a left hand break, right hand break and A-frame surf all at the same beach.

At the far western end of Lhoknga beach is a river which is excellent for paddle boarding. You can paddle board up the river a few kilometers. The river is also good for fishing.

There are around 10 small guesthouses in the Lhoknga area with some larger guesthouses and hotels being developed in 2014. Yudi's Place is one of the closest to the beach and just around to corner is Norma's Guesthouse. Both Yudi's and Norma's have a restaurant serving both local and Western food. Both have free WiFi internet access for their guests.

You can rent a bicycle or motorbike to get around Lhoknga or into Banda Aceh. Make sure you get an internationl licence as if the police pull you over you will need to show this or expect a 'fine'.
