Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Our predicted bump in swell did not materialize in a significant way this morning. The small southwest swell was trailed by a wind from a similar direction, and was mixed in with a dropping tide. These conditions limited our options. Uluwatu was looking like our best bet as the faces of the waves remained clean despite the onshore texture. Uluwatu is nearly always good for a head-high wave, and today was no exception. The wave height was mostly shoulder high with larger, head-high sets coming through.

Over the last few days, the afternoons have had better conditions than the morning, and we expect this afternoon to be similar. Over the last several afteroons, the wind has been lighter and the tide higher, which is preferable for many spots around the Bukit. Tomorrow, the swill is predicted to increase to 5 Ft. at 14 seconds!
