Wilkes Pass (or Wilkie’s) in Fiji is a powerful, long, and consistent right-handed reef break located northwest of Namotu Island in the Mamanuca group. It offers a challenging, hollow wave that thrives on SSW swells, often holding more size than neighboring spots like Swimming Pools. Accessible by boat, it is best suited for intermediate to advanced surfers.

While known for being a bit more forgiving than nearby Cloudbreak, Wilkes Pass can still offer intense, fast rides on a good day.
