The new swell has arrived and it brought massive waves with it. Padang-Padang was pumping this morning and many surfers got the waves of their lives. Although this wave clearly is not for everybody, the smaller, more user-friendly version of it called “Baby-Padang” was perfect for catching the first green waves.

Due to the big swell, there was a strong current which made it a little difficult to stay in the right place in the line-up. With local knowledge of our surf guides, this was no problem at all! It is important to know the currents and the surf spots very well on days like today. Especially at surf spots like Padang-Padang or Uluwatu. Having more knowledge about the waves and surf breaks will make you more comfortable in the water, have more fun, and progress quicker.
