Intermediate surf guiding at Balangan
★★★★★
Fun waves at Balangan this morning: Lined-up walls, a touch of offshore breeze, and clear water! Wave heights have dropped since yesterday, but there was plenty of shoulder to head-high waves rolling in. The lines walled up nicely along the reef, and provided plenty of space for the surfers to ride down the line.
It is a great time of year to be in Uluwatu for early morning surfing. The air and water temperatures are beginning to creep upwards, and the Tradewind is beginning to pick up in strength later in the session. With less wind in the morning, more spots around the island are available for surfing. In late September and October, you can expect the swells to be smaller than in June, July, and August.
