Ability Level: Intermediate

Balangan is always worth going to! The white sand and crystal clear water are a beautiful view and the waves make this beach look even better. It is a popular destination for sun-seekers and wave catchers from all over the world.

Beginner, intermediate, and on bigger days, also advanced surfers will have a lot of fun out there.
While riding the waves, you can see fish and colorful coral reefs underneath you. Sitting on the board and waiting for the next set is always a nice way to relax and look at the nature around you.
On days like this, it is all about having fun and enjoying an afternoon surf session with a group of good friends.

This morning we went to Toro Toro before sunrise and scored epic waves. April is the best month for Toro Toro due to light winds all day every day.

After breakfast we went to ever consistent Padang Padang. It was cloudy which meant that the wind was light and variable instead of offshore which the sunshine will deliver. It was still very good fun with waves breaking mellowly both left and right. 2 fun surf sessions today, and every day, is the pleasure of a surfing holiday in Bali.

Uluwatu was the best choice today due to the small swell and high tide. Glassy conditions and shoulder-high sets delivered fun waves for everyone. Yes, there was a crowd, but with the many peaks, people spread out and you can find a spot in the line-up.

Our professional guides know where it’s best to wait for the waves. Local knowledge is key to surfing Uluwatu successfully. This wave has everything to offer. Long clean rides as well as fast-breaking barrels. Pick the right waves according to your surfing skills and you will have a great time surfing one of the best spots on the planet.

Another beautiful sunny day here in paradise island. The swell has dropped in size, but very clean conditions today at Bali’s premier surf spot. We love Uluwatu due to the quality and length of the ride. More and more people are returning to Bali, but it is still relatively quiet and the long reef at Uluwatu is excellent for spreading out the crowds.

Today was perfect for intermediate surfers as the waves were head high and not too powerful. Uluwatu can be dangerous at low tide so we always surf it between mid and high tide, when there is enough water on the reef for comfort and safety.

Practice is key to a successful surfing career. Knowing when to go and what conditions are best for your current surfing level, is equally important. Our professional guides know the best spots for the day’s conditions. Not only will it help you to improve faster, but you will also get to know how to choose the right surf spot.

Balangan was a great choice today, shoulder to head-high sets came through very consistently and the higher tide made the waves very “user-friendly” to ride. By all means, it was not perfect, but does it really matter if you have fun?! Remember, the best surfer is the one having the most fun out there!

Balangan was a blast this morning! Clean head high sets were consistently coming in and everyone was catching waves out there. This can be a tricky wave to read, many sections make it difficult to continue the ride, but when you do, you can have one of the longest rides of your life.

The scenery is spectacular and the white sand beach invites you to have a cold drink after the surf session. It’s also perfect to relax in one of the many warungs or enjoy the sun and crystal clear water. A surf spot for all levels, depending on wave size and tides. Great for beginners with small waves and high tides. Today it was perfect for the intermediate and advanced surfers.

Today we cruised down to cruisy Balangan. Perfect picture postcard, long white sand beach, with waves to match. It’s a very long reef with a few sections to spread out the crowds. On bigger days it’s possible to get a ride all the way from the point to way past the warungs. Today was a day for Intermediates and longboarders with cruisy waves. Balangan does not have a strong current and is always smaller that Uluwatu, but never ever flat.

Balangan is one of the most beautiful beaches in Bali. But not only the beach, but also the waves attract many people from all over the world. The water is crystal clear and the waves can be some of the longest you have ever ridden in your life. A goofy footer’s dream!

The paddle out can be a little tricky but with professional guidance, you can be sure to make it out safe. On the wave, the challenge is to generate speed to make it to the open face of the wave. Once there you can enjoy the ride and if you’re lucky, the wave will keep going much longer than expected. Balangan is great to hang around for the day. Surf, relax with an ice-cold coconut on the beach, and surf again.
