Digger

Digger is an exposed coral/reef break near Beimau where conditions are highly selective. The spot is described as fast and hollow, producing right and left waves that can offer longer rides (often quoted around 50 to 150 meters) when the swell and wind line up. Multiple sources emphasize that it can remain flat for long periods and “does not work very often,” so success depends on finding the right moment. Wind information is inconsistent between providers (one points to northeast winds; another notes northwest winds as giving the cleanest/offshore feel). In both cases, the general theme is that the break is dependent on a specific swell-and-wind window and has low reliability. Swell direction is also discussed with south/southwest being the best match, and workable wave height is described roughly in the 1 to 4 meters range, with it potentially maxing out beyond that. Safety risk is a major part of planning here. Sources list sharks and sharp reef/coral hazards, and regional safety guidance adds crocodile risk on the south coast—especially near river mouths and mangroves. The break is exposed and remote, so riders should treat it as an advanced, self-sufficient mission rather than an easy-access session; experienced surfers only are recommended. Access and amenities are limited. One provider describes difficult/remote access that may require 4WD and informal parking near the beach; regional guidance indicates limited rescue availability and no dedicated water-sports infrastructure such as rescue boats or equipment support.
