Our beginner surfers enjoyed a wonderful morning at the camp’s favorite wave of Padang Padang! We had perfect beginner surfing conditions with easy-rolling, smooth and glassy waves. The waves rolled in at waist to shoulder high, from a swell of 4.5 ft at 13 seconds from 209 degrees. The camp waited for the tide to cover the reef before padding out, as we had a low tide of .7 meters at 7:10 AM (Benoa). The surfers worked on improving their positioning and catching waves at the peak as compared to the shoulder. When the waves are clean like today, a beginner surfer can make lasting improvements in their surfing quickly.

April and May are perfect months for beginners and intermediates to develop their surfing in Bali. There is less wind, the waves are smaller, and more breaks are open for our surfing enjoyment.
