Ability Level: Advanced

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.

Today was another big wave day in Bali! The biggest swell of the year began to fill in yesterday and peaked overnight. This morning, Uluwatu was for the waterman on massive boards and chargers getting towed into bombs behind jet skis. The wind was moderately offshore, and the tide was moving quickly, thanks to a full moon this evening. A few surfers tackled the Bombie, challenging themselves on critical, fast walls that are known to close out at any moment. Others choose the long lines of Outside Corner, making the challenging conditions look easy.

As we approach the end of the dry season, this is likely the final XL swell of the year.

Incredible surf at Balangan this morning! The surf was absolutely firing, with glassy waves and just the right amount of offshore wind for some Balinese perfection. The intermediate surfers were pushing their limits in these epic conditions, with the promise of barrels keeping everyone motivated. The waves were overhead, and consistent sets rolled through the lineup. There were tons of barrels for the committed surfers, plus long, fast rides for the rest of the crew.

Check out the photos to see why today was one of those magical days that make the long flights worth it! More perfect surf is on the way, so see you out there!

Excellent surfing conditions at Uluwatu this morning! Our intermediate and advanced surfers paddled out at first light into perfectly clean lefts breaking below the stunning cliffs. The wind was blowing lightly offshore and the sea state was very smooth. The waves were in the overhead range on the largest of sets, with plenty of shoulder-high waves mixed in. The intermediate surfers took the smaller and slower-moving rides from the shoulder. The advanced surfers sat deep on the peak, waiting for the fast and powerful ones offering racing walls and barrel sections.

We have a powerful swell filling in tomorrow afternoon. Monday and Tuesday morning are looking very good. See you out there!

Clean and consistent surf greeted surfers at Uluwatu this morning. The waves were mostly in the overhead range, with occasional barrel sections for the most skilled and committed surfers. The shifting seasons brought some texture to the lineup, but overall conditions remained good with clean faces. Light and variable winds changed slightly as the session progressed but didn’t impact the wave quality. As the tide pushed in, the pace of the waves slowed slightly, offering more opportunities for turns.

We are seeing signs of the seasons changing here in Bali. The consistent trade wind is starting to break down, the water is getting a little warmer, and the swells are getting smaller. See you out there!

Our intermediate and advanced surfers headed for Uluwatu at first light for some fun-sized lefts (and rights). The waves were mostly in the head-high range, with a few larger sets coming in occasionally. The wind was blowing very light offshore, and the water is starting to warm up just a little. The line-up was very clean, and the waves were breaking at a slower pace than usual at The Racetrack. It was a great day for working on your turns, as the wave allowed time for a deep bottom turn to set up your best top turns.

We have a new swell arriving today. This afternoon, Monday, and Tuesday are looking great! See you out there!

This morning’s session at Uluwatu was a lot of fun for our advanced surfers. The swell has eased into a more manageable size, with light offshore winds creating perfect conditions. The atmosphere in the lineup was relaxed, and the water was cool and clear. The surf was mostly in the overhead range, with occasional larger sets hinting at the incoming swell expected later today. We enjoyed the entire session on a rising tide without the tide getting too high, making the most of the morning’s favourable conditions.

Expect several days of powerful swells from today. The standout breaks in the Uluwatu area will be reserved for experts only from this afternoon through Monday.

We are seeing much smaller surf this morning after yesterday’s large swell. With Uluwatu still breaking at Outside Corner and The Bombie, our advanced group paddled out at Impossibles chasing those famous long lefts. The surf was mostly in the overhead range with a few larger set waves. The Tradewind was light offshore, creating clean conditions with no noticeable current. The waves were breaking quickly, but the best ones offered extended rides down the reef.

Impossibles is one of the longest left-handers in Bali when everything comes together. With the right tide, swell, wind direction, and good wave selection, you can get some very long rides.
