Emis Point

Reviewed 23 Oct 2026 · not observation-validated

Published sources reviewed by SWELLRADAR, not validation against measured breaking waves. Directional references are qualitative ranking inputs, not surveyed optima or full acceptance windows. The inherited generic 0.6–3.0 m offshore-model band remains unchanged and unvalidated: not a local working range, safe learner range or wave-face conversion. Original approximate map pins and location sources remain. Explicit sea requests do not survey takeoffs, reefs, sandbanks, currents, access or provider-snapped cells. The association's own historical competition account establishes Emis as a left point near Pango. The nearby original Pango Point guide is consistent with the mapped left and reports coral reef, S swell and NNE wind, but also covers a right; matching is approximate, not a surveyed takeoff. Its broad NNE clean-wind reference is left unscored at Emis to avoid transferring exact peak mechanics. A right elsewhere in the general guide is not added to this specifically mapped left. Its single-guide high/rising-tide preference is not independently established as a normalized whole-reef optimum: phase/motion bonuses, preferred windows and adaptive fallback remain off. Official Vanuatu tourism distinguishes gentler teaching areas from reef hazards; its general 1–2 m tourism wording and historical competition activity do not validate this peak's breaking height, operator availability or present access. The channel and falling-water cautions are general reef cautions, not measured Emis currents. No reef depth, safe channel or cyclone refuge is inferred.

• Vanuatu Surfing Association · own Emis competition and community account

  Association's historical first-party account specifically names the left point known locally as Emis near Pango; not a current event, safety service or all-Pango profile.

• Surf-Forecast · original Pango Point guide

  Nearby Pango Point guide reports left/right reef, S swell and NNE wind; approximate place context does not independently survey Emis' wind optimum or reef clearance.

• Vanuatu Tourism Office · original surfing guidance

  Official Pango surf context and distinction between gentler learning areas and shallow/fast reef hazards; not spot-specific ability certification or breaking-height validation.
