When most of the Mentawai Islands are flat, you can rely on Burger World to dish up something tasty. Not a highly rated wave for the region but when it’s working, this wave-magnet runs down the point offering numerous sections to work with as well as some nice barrel sections. It never truly breaks to its potential in the main season (and is usually crowded), preferring the small long range singular swells of the off season. Larger swells have a tendency to "burger-out" and go fat. Ideal around head high to a foot over head, Burgers prefers a lower tide and a wind with West/North-West in it. Great for the ripper or the cruiser, this magical spot has an incredible back drop that has graced numerous magazines over the years.
