Intermediate surf guiding at Balangan

Wonderful conditions this morning out at Balangan! With light winds, a calm sea state, and a fun swell, our guests were getting plenty of excellent waves! As you can see, there were many opportunities to generate speed and hit the lip or complete a carve on the open face.

Balangan is a very consistent wave which picks up swell from all directions. While it is possible to get the ride of your life here, most waves break too fast for beginner surfers. The wave is best on bigger days but suitable for intermediate surfers on medium days and novices when small enough. The beach on Balangan is particularily beautiful as well. Additionally, Balangan has seen less development than other areas with many warungs still on the beach. Many of these classic Balinese beach warungs have been removed to make way for bigger developments in many parts of the island that attract tourists.
