Transitioning from a soft- to hard board is a big step in your early surfing career. It is very important to make the right board choice. Otherwise, it can be difficult to progress if the equipment is not suitable for your surfing skills. Professional advice from our surf guides will help you find the right size and volume for your next surfboard.

Trying a new board is always exciting. It feels different and much more precise when doing turns on the wave. Once switched to a hard board, you don’t want to go back. From here on it is only going forward and you will progress further every time you go out and catch waves. This is when the fun really begins!

Having the right surf conditions, equipment and guidance is key to a successful start of your surfing career. There is no doubt that this wave is one of the best in the world to learn how to surf. The gently breaking peaks are perfect for catching the first green, or unbroken waves.

Bali is well known for its consistency and great surfing conditions year-round. If you want to get the most out of your holiday and improve as much as possible, then Padang Padang is the place to go. Surf as much as you can and enjoy the beautiful nature around this beach. This wave is putting a smile on every surfer’s face!

The south of the Bukit was the place to go today. Nyang-Nyang is the preferred choice for many surfers on smaller days. The low periodic swell was perfect for the exposed surf spot. The right-hander was peeling perfectly over the reef and many incoming sets made it easy for everyone to catch waves.

Intermediate or expert surfer, this spot has something for everyone. Even if you don’t surf, the beach and scenery are breathtaking. Crystal clear water and colorful fish await you in the line-up as well as perfectly shaped A-frames. The ice-cold coconut after the session is just the right thing to stay hydrated after a great morning surf.

Happy faces can be seen all over Bali today. The sunny weather draws many surfers out in the open to check the waves early in the morning. A smaller but still consistent swell was delivering shoulder to head-high sets at Uluwatu. Rippable, very enjoyable waves were breaking all morning long.

A surfing contest in Kuta thinned out the crowd the last couple of days. Many of the local surfers, professionals, and amateurs are participating there and leave us more opportunities to catch waves at Uluwatu. It’s amazing when you see professional surfers live in the water, but it is even better to surf uncrowded waves yourself!

Nice swell lines were on the horizon today and Uluwatu was shoulder to head high this morning. Although the conditions were not perfectly clean, the waves had good shape and were peeling over the reef nicely. The moderate crowd made it easy to catch waves and everyone out in the line-up was happy.

Waking up with sunny weather, great waves and clear water is a boost to everyone’s mood. The end of the rainy season is around the corner and we are looking forward to the first big south swell. Usually, March is a good month for both sides of the Bukit, the west and east coast. Light winds and higher period swells give plenty of surf spot options to choose from.

When it comes to consistency, Uluwatu is hard to beat. Surely the best months are from May to September, when the waves are perfect nearly every day with off-shore wind conditions, but also in the rainy season, it is one of the best surf spots in Bali. It may depend on your personal preference what you see as perfect waves, it is clear though that Uluwatu offers great waves for everyone.

As an intermediate surfer, this wave gives you an opportunity to challenge yourself and to improve your surfing skills dramatically. An advanced surfer may want to wait for the bigger sets and let you have the smaller, more user-friendly waves. Today was an exemplary day of the many faces Uluwatu can show. Head-high waves with occasionally bigger sets offered rides for all levels out there. With the right guidance and knowledge, you can pick the most suitable waves for you and your surfing level.

A very strong rain shower early in the morning kept the crowds away today. Lucky for us as we arrived at an almost empty line-up with overhead sets coming in. Fast, powerful left-breaking waves with steep walls and the occasional barrel are not unusual here. The perfect place to work on your speed-generating skills.

The lack of incoming sets is never an issue in the south of the Bukit peninsula. Its exposed southern location catches a lot of swells and even on smaller days, the size and power of the waves should not be underestimated. This is another reason why this surf spot is a favorite among some of Bali’s best surfers during the rainy season.

Great to be back surfing our favourite surf spot of Uluwatu. This is always our go to spot as just 5 minutes away, and it really is the premier surf spot in Bali. Uluwatu is a very big reef with many sections and is surfable at all tides. Our favourite section is the racetrack as the ride can be incredibly long and fast.

Today was not classic Uluwatu, as there was a light onshore wind, but the wave face was clean and good wave quality. Overhead on the set, with some great rides to be had. Crowds were quite light as a lot of people will be getting their daily fix of waves on the east coast.
