Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Fun conditions this morning in the Uluwatu area! The ocean was smooth and the west wind on the forecast only began to arrive toward the end of the session. Our intermediate group paddled out through the famous cave at Uluwatu, where they enjoyed fun left-breaking waves running down the perfectly shaped reef. The waves were head-high on the sets, with the occasional larger wave coming in, and the forecast showed 3 ft. at 13 seconds, coming from 209 degrees. The surfers worked on building their confidence when surfing a steeper reef break, and reducing the time it takes for them to gain control of the surfboard after they pop up.

The surf forecast shows a persistent west wind blowing until the 18th, however long-range forecast in this latitude are not accurate enough to be relied on. See you out there!
