Hanuman point

Hanuman Point is a surf spot in North-East India known for its scenic, relatively uncrowded setting and soft tropical vibe. Like much of the surf along India’s eastern and northeastern coastlines, conditions are often shaped by the monsoon season, with the best surf typically appearing when swell lines come in from the Bay of Bengal and local wind conditions cooperate.

What it’s like

• Setting: Generally a natural, less-developed stretch of coast with a remote feel.
• Wave type: Usually a beachbreak or mixed sand/reef setup, depending on the exact section of coastline referred to locally.
• Best for: Intermediate surfers when it’s small-to-moderate; advanced surfers when monsoon swell picks up and the waves get heavier or more inconsistent.
• Crowds: Often low compared with mainstream Indian surf destinations.

Conditions

• Seasonality: Best during monsoon and transitional periods, when swell is more reliable.
• Wind: Early mornings and offshore windows tend to be the cleanest.
• Consistency: Can be intermittent, so timing matters.

What to expect

• Warm water and generally tropical conditions.
• A more local, low-key atmosphere.
• Potentially strong currents or shifting sandbars, especially after big swell or storms.

Notes

Because “Hanuman Point” can be used locally and may refer to a specific break known by regional surfers, the exact wave character can vary.
