G-Land, surf break in Indonesia

G-Land, also called Plengkung Beach, is a surf break on the east side of Grajagan Bay in Alas Purwo National Park, Banyuwangi, East Java. Its left-hand wave peels for about half a kilometre along shallow coral reef, forming hollow tubes; the point is divided into sections including Kongs, Moneytrees and Speedies.

West Australian surfer Barry Middleton began searching Java's southeast coast in mid-1971, and his find was noted by Bob Laverty. Four years later his friend Mike Boyum helped set up the first surf camp, possibly the start of the paying surf camp concept; Balinese surfer Bobby Radiasa took over in the late 1970s and still runs it. In 1994 a 7.2-magnitude Java Trench earthquake sent a tsunami about 5.6 m high into a camp here, with no deaths at Plengkung.

The break takes its name from Grajagan Bay, while the point itself is called Plengkung. Balinese surfer Bobby Radiasa has run the original camp since the late 1970s, and other camps later opened. Surfers time visits to the week after a full or new moon, when high tide falls at midday.

Visitors should be careful when entering the water through a gap in the reef and should surf at higher tides to make entry and exit safer. Booties protect against coral cuts, and carrying a first aid kit is advisable, as reef injuries are common.

The area is divided into named sections, each with different characteristics such as Money Trees known for deep barrels and Launching Pads for steep takeoffs. This variety makes G-Land essentially multiple surf spots in one location, each with its own challenges and features.
