Activity: Surf Guiding

Our group of intermediate surfers had a fantastic time surfing the beautiful peaks at Balangan. The swell has dropped in size since yesterday, which was welcomed after yesterday’s powerful long-period swell. The surfers enjoyed sets just overhead, punctuated by numerous smaller waves for everyone’s delight. The wind had picked up to a moderate pace, while the offshore direction preserved clean wave faces. The surfers with the ability to ride high on the wave face were rewarded with long, open walls, while the improving surfers worked on generating speed by pumping the surfboard and optimizing their weight distribution.

There will be an increase in wave size tomorrow, accompanied by consistently favorable surf conditions.

With traces of a new swell appearing in the lineup and a quickly rising tide, our intermediate surfers eagerly gathered their boards and set off for Balangan, a beloved spot among our camp members when the tide is high. At the inviting sandy shores of Balangan, they were greeted by the excellent surfing conditions you can expect in May. The incoming pulse of swell brought waves reaching head-high with occasional standout sets. The trade wind blew moderately offshore, holding the faces of the waves up that extra moment longer, allowing the surfers to make the extra sections down the line. The surfers enjoyed the long walls, and came home ready for lunch.

Today’s swell will persist until Friday before gradually diminishing on Saturday.

Another exhilarating day of surfing awaited us at the world’s premier surfing destination. Our advanced group set off for Uluwatu early, while our intermediate group enjoyed the pristine peaks at Balangan, and our beginners rode the protected waves of Padang Padang.

At Uluwatu, the surfers wasted no time, paddling out at first light to beat the rapidly rising tide. They were greeted with flawless sheet glass conditions and elongated lines across the multiple peaks that make up Uluwatu. A gentle offshore breeze from the east added to the perfection, maintaining impeccable conditions. Although the swell continued to decrease in size for another day, the surfers enjoyed head-high set waves with the occasional standout set. Overall, it was a memorable day filled with incredible surf.

Our advanced group headed to Uluwatu this morning to challenge themselves at Bali’s most famous wave. The swell has increased in size since yesterday, and the waves came in at overhead high with the occasional larger set coming in. The wind blew lightly offshore, and the rides were long. The surfers enjoyed testing themselves on the steep drops, which required paddling hard down the face of the wave to avoid being thrown with the lip.

What many people don’t know about Uluwatu is that the wave can give you the ride of your life on any given day! Perfect sets can arrive unexpectedly, and some waves can run for more than 300 meters down the reef, with many barrel and turn sections. Take advantage of the opportunity to experience the thrill of Uluwatu.

We’re stoked to report that a fresh swell has rolled in, bringing with it calm winds and sunny skies! Our intermediate group had a blast catching the low-tide peaks at Dreamland this morning. The waves have increased in size, reaching head-high on the set waves, thanks to a new 4.5 ft. swell with a period of 16 seconds coming from 218 degrees. The offshore wind provided ideal conditions, resulting in a smooth ocean surface. Surfers were treated to lengthy, pristine rides all the way to the shore.

Dreamland truly shines as a low-tide break when the swell grows larger in conjunction with a morning low tide. It’s no wonder Dreamland is one of the surf camp’s most beloved waves.

Our intermediate surfers seized on the opportunity afforded to them with the dropping swell to paddle out through the iconic cave at Uluwatu this morning. The swell has backed off in size to 4 ft. at 13 seconds from 210 degrees, which is just enough for our intermediate surfers to surf the wave safely and enjoyably. The waves were in the shoulder-high range on most sets, with the occasional overhead and larger set wave coming through. The water was crystal clear, the wind blew ever so lightly offshore, and the waves were everything our surfers hoped for. The surfers worked on developing drive from their bottom turns, an essential skillset every surfer must master.

The forecast shows the swell continuing to drop for one more day, with small to moderate-sized swells present through the next week or so. Let’s go!

Wonderful surfing conditions at the world’s most consistently excellent wave this morning! Crystal clear water, a light offshore breeze, and plenty of overhead sets with the occasional larger wave. The lines broke beautifully down the reef, providing dreamy open faces and the occasional barrel sections for skilled surfers. Our intermediate group enjoyed the taste of perfection, and many had some of the best waves of their lives. The forecast read 3.5 ft. at 12 seconds, which is enough for fun waves.

There is no better place in the world to be during the month of May than Uluwatu. The waves are world-class daily, the weather is serene, and the island is as magical as it ever has been. Under the careful guidance of our knowledgeable instructors, we can guide you into waves just like these.

5-star surfing conditions all across the Uluwatu Area! Our intermediate surfers enjoyed perfect, peeling lines at Balangan this morning. Offshore wind, head-high surf, and long lines! Mornings like these are precisely why surfers across the globe travel to this small island. The forecast read 4 ft. At 14 seconds from 211 degrees, which brought in consistent head-high set waves. The lines broke perfectly across the reef, held up by the offshore wind. The surfers worked on slowing down their body movements to better understand what the waves were doing given the ideal conditions.

May is an excellent month for surfing in the Uluwatu area! The swell is generally smaller in size, and the tradewind has not fully kicked in, which is the perfect blend for improving as an intermediate surfer. The forecast is looking excellent; see you out in the line-up!
