Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland
★★★★★

What a morning we had at the surf camp’s favourite low tide wave- Dreamland. The A-frame peak delivered the goods, serving long, fast, lefts with the rights moving along just a little slower. The waves were very clean, and the wind was blowing offshore! The swell has dropped just enough in size and consistency since yesterday to allow our intermediate surfers to challenge themselves in overhead + sized waves.

The surfers worked on building confidence when dropping into bigger waves, something that is more easily done under the watchful eye and careful guidance of our surf instructors. Known for their endless positivity and magnetic personalities, our surf instructors are the guys who will make sure you have a memorable session and that you are on the best waves.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu
★★★★★

Another excellent morning in surfing paradise! We have a fresh swell, which has increased the size and consistency of the surf! Our surfers enjoyed overhead + waves with a few larger sets. Our intermediate surfers picked off the smaller in-between waves, while the advanced surfers went for the bombs. The conditions in the morning were clean, with a wind from the west picking up towards the end of the session. Despite the grey morning, everyone got some excellent rides and gained experience surfing a proper reef break.

We are approaching that time of year when we begin to shift the breaks we surf. Starting soon, we will swap Uluwatu with Chicken Wings and Geger Left, and Padang Padang with Mushroom Rock. As always in Bali, it is forever offshore somewhere.

Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang
★★★★★

Beautiful beginner surf conditions this morning! Our developing surfers enjoyed shoulder-high waves with a calm and clear ocean- exactly what a beginner surfer needs for a memorable day in the line-up! The waves were just the perfect size for a new surfer to easily learn to get to their feet and get that first good ride that they have been dreaming about. The surfers enjoyed getting wave after wave, which speeds up the learning process by leaps and bounds.

Additionally, the waves at Padang Padang break similarly to each other, formed by the shape of the reef below the waves. This repetition allows a surfer to improve at an exponential rate compared to most other beginner surf beaches- just one of the many reasons why Padang Padang is the perfect beginner wave!

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland
★★★★★

Flawless surf at Dreamland this morning! The A-frame peak delivered the goods with long, glassy lines coming in at a consistent interval. The swell has dropped since yesterday, but we are still seeing overhead waves, with a few larger ones left over from yesterday. The lefts were long, fast, smooth, and enjoyable. And the rights were slower and shorter with big cutback sections- perfect for dialling in your cutback technique.

The waves today were the perfect size for our intermediate surfers to make lasting improvements in their surfing. The surfers worked on riding the waves with their body (and feet) positioned correctly over the surfboard, which allows a surfer to efficiently control their speed by shifting their weight distribution forwards and backwards while maintaining the functional stance. More perfect days incoming!
