Month: November 2024

Today was a classic Toro-Toro day, offering waist-to-shoulder-high clean runners that kept the stoke alive. The well-shaped reef provided the perfect setup for surfers to enjoy long, smooth rides while dialling in their technique. The slow-moving waves were ideal for practising the fundamentals and gaining confidence in riding down the line with control.

Toro-Toro’s charm is undeniable—from the scenic boat ride to the lineup to surfing under the occasional buzz of airplanes overhead. The wave’s playful shape and surprising length make every session here one to remember. Ready to experience it for yourself? Join us on our next Toro-Toro surf adventure!

Beautiful beginner surf conditions this morning! Our developing surfers enjoyed shoulder-high waves with a touch of offshore wind- exactly what a beginner surfer needs for a memorable day in the line-up! The waves were just the right size for the surfers to learn to ride down the line, stay in the power source of the wave, and begin to do turns.

Several key characteristics make Baby Padang such a great beginners’ wave. The waves break at a consistently slow pace, which allows for ample time for the surfer to learn to make adjustments on the wave. The waves are all similar in shape. And the channel makes paddling a whole lot easier.

Another excellent morning in surfing paradise! A fresh swell has brought pumping surf to Bali’s reefs and beaches. With light and variable winds, surfers spread out all across the island. Uluwatu was the highlight today, offering consistent head-high sets with a light offshore wind and long, clean lines. Our intermediate surfers found smaller in-between waves, while the advanced surfers chased the overhead sets.

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

Our beginner surfers enjoyed excellent surfing conditions at Baby Padang this morning! The waves were in the shoulder-high range, the wind was blowing offshore, the water was the perfect temperature, and the tide was in a good range. The surfers worked on identifying the feeling of the surfboard beginning to plane on the wave, which is the signal to initiate your pop-up.

Knowing when to pop-up on the surfboard is a key skill every surfer must learn. If you stand up too early, the wave will pass underneath you, and if you stand up too late, you will miss the opportunity to control the board from the top of the wave.­

Fun waves this morning! Our intermediate surfers paddled out to the Race Track at Uluwatu, famous for its long lines and consistent waves. The swell has continued to drop in size and consistency since yesterday. The biggest set waves were in the head-high range, with the rest being waist to shoulder-high. The session began with a light offshore wind, before shifting to coming from the south.

We are in the perfect time of year for beginner and intermediate surfing in Bali. The swells drop to an easier size for improving on the basics. The winds are light and variable, allowing us to surf at all of our favourite breaks.

Great conditions for surfing in Bali this morning! Our beginner surfers made steady progress and had a fantastic time. The waist-high waves were ideal for developing surfers who were working on finding their balance and foot placement and building their confidence. The tide was just right, the wind was blowing lightly offshore, and the waves were shaping up nicely. The lefts provided longer rides after reforming, while the rights offered a shorter but easier ride.

These conditions are perfect for nailing the basics, especially the functional stance—a key skill in surfing. Padang Padang’s gentle, consistent waves and easy access through the channel make it an ideal spot for new surfers to learn and improve.

Uluwatu served up fun waves this morning! Early risers enjoyed near-empty lineups, with our crew catching waves at first light. Despite the fading swell, plenty of waves rolled through, including a few head-high sets. Conditions were clean, and a light offshore breeze held up the wave faces just a little longer, allowing for two or three turns before reaching a heavy end section that most surfers were advised to steer clear of.

Surf is expected to be smaller on Monday and Tuesday, but starting Wednesday, a solid swell is forecasted to bring consistent waves for the week ahead.
