Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Today is a big wave day in Bali with a very large swell lighting up the Bukit Peninsula, making the breaks in the Uluwatu area for experts only. This morning, our surfers headed out to Jimbaran’s more tucked away breaks, where they enjoyed much more user-friendly waves.

Out at Uluwatu, the big wave chargers were putting on a real show, a testament to their skill and courage. After waiting for the tide to drop enough mid-morning, the big wave chargers paddled out to macking, several times overhead Uluwatu bombs. The surfers were carving up some beautiful lines, much to the delight of the onlookers on the cliff.

Intermediate surf guiding at Padang Padang

A fresh, new swell is here, and the surf is getting bigger by the hour. Our beginner and intermediate surfers set off for Padang Padang in search of fun, long lefts and rights. The weather was mixed, with a shifting wind and cloud cover, yet the surf conditions remained clean. The waves were in the head-high range. The rights offered a better ride, delivering beautiful tapered lines- perfect for finding the functional stance. The rights broke at a faster pace, however, reformed into a friendly soft wave, great for those just learning the feel of how to turn the board.

Tomorrow and Wednesday will see large surf. Stay safe and know your limits!

Intermediate surf guiding at Balangan

Our intermediate surfers set off before sunrise to catch the fun lefts at Balangan. With the swell dropping in size, an early high tide, and a fresh offshore breeze, the conditions were perfect for a fun morning in the lineup. The surf is down to the head-high range with a few larger sets coming in occasionally. The waves were breaking along nicely along the reef, offering the surfers fun, clean walls of water to play with. The surfers were among the first in the lineup, in time for the spectacular sunrise.

We have another big swell coming! We will begin to see the forerunning set waves tomorrow, and on Tuesday and Wednesday, we will see XL surf.

Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang

More fun waves at Baby Padang this morning! There were a few big sets left over from the large swell, but the surf has mostly calmed down to a more user-friendly size. The waves were in the head-high range, with some overhead sets breaking further outside the lineup. The wind was light offshore, and the conditions were clean. Some surfers opted to stick to the white water, while the others sat outside the lineup waiting for the bigger sets. The surfers on the inside focused on their pop-ups and functional stance, while the surfers on the outside worked on confidence and control.

It is going to be another great day in the lineup tomorrow! See you out there!
