Bali Surf Report and Surf Forecast

There were fun waves at the cruisey left-hand pointbreak at Medewi this morning. This wave is a few hours’ drive along the coast from Padang Padang, and it offers long and slow lefts over a rocky bottom. The surf was breaking in the shoulder-high range with no wind. The waves were breaking about half-way down the point however the conditions were smooth and the session was relaxed.

Medewi is an excellent intermediate surfers’ wave as it breaks in a long and slow manner that helps a surfer identify when they need to return to the power source (the pocket) of the wave. Too slow to return to the power source and you will be off the back of the wave.

Wonderful beginner surf conditions this morning! We have an overcast day today with mixed weather conditions, which is great news for those who know where and when to surf. Our beginner surfers enjoyed an easy, relaxed day in the line-up, with a light crowd and fun conditions. The surface of the ocean was very smooth and calm, with just a touch of wind from the west. The waves were breaking at about waist-high, which is a good size for just learning to stand up.

These are great conditions for learning to surf. The waves were coming in at a slow pace, and all broke in a consistent manner. Slow and consistent surf is the perfect platform to improve your surfing.

Small wave surfing today in Bali. Our beginner surfers chose to surf at Balangan in easy, beginner-friendly conditions. The weather was excellent, and the crowds were light. The waves were in the shoulder-high range and were breaking nicely left across the reef. The wind was blowing slightly onshore from the southwest, but the waves were still fun. The surfers worked on getting to their feet quickly with their feet placed correctly over the centre line of the surfboard.

This time of year, you can often get uncrowded surf at waves around the surf camp. Most people head straight to Nusa Dua or other parts of the island without realizing there are fun waves just on our doorstep. See you out there!

Excellent quiet season surf this morning! An early morning rain shower had cleaned up the surf perfectly, just in time for a morning session at Uluwatu. The surf was in the head-high range with a few bigger set waves. The wind was light and variable, blowing from several directions throughout the session. The swell was rolling onto the reef in nicely organized lines. The waves broke in long but fast lines down the reef.

Our intermediate surfers worked on riding along the face of the wave, which requires that next step of control of your surfboard to get moving down the line at a swift pace. The surfers had a great time in the user-friendly surf, which is just what they came here for.

Our intermediate and advanced surfers set off for Geger Left early this morning. The weather was a challenge, but the conditions quickly cleaned up with the offshore wind organizing the surf. The surfers enjoyed mostly head-high surf with some larger, overhead set waves. There was a fun mix of both left and right-breaking waves that the surfers were able to select from. The lefts offered fast sections with barrels for the most skilled surfers. The rights were shorter but breaking at a slower pace. There was a mix of wave sizes for everyone to choose from.

The surfers enjoyed the beauty of the location with views of Mount Agung in the northeast, Nusa Lembongan and Pendida to the east, and the 5-star resorts at Nikko Beach just to the south.

More fun beginner surfing at Dreamland this morning! The conditions were very clean and the waves were breaking at an easy pace- perfect for beginner surf lessons! The wind was blowing nicely light offshore against the shoulder-high waves. The surface of the ocean was very smooth, and the water was that dreamy turquoise colour that Dreamland is famous for. Overall, it was a great session!

For beginner surfers, Dreamland is a step up in difficulty as there is no channel, and the waves break a little faster. These waves give the surfer the opportunity to ride left and right down the line a greater distance than at Padang Padang. When learning to ride the waves at Dreamland, a surfer will learn to engage their rail and get moving down the line.

Fun waves at Uluwatu this morning! We are enjoying a fine break in the wind, which allowed us access to all of the best breaks in the Uluwatu area. This morning, our intermediate surfers headed out to Uluwatu for overhead surf, with just a few surfers out. The wind was blowing lightly from the southwest, which added some texture to the lineup. Despite the wind, the waves were very fun and the session was relaxed. Nevertheless, the surfers enjoyed the long lefts with several turn and speed sections.

We are enjoying an incredible wet season this year. The wind has been light for the last several days, with many good sessions in Uluwatu and at the airport reefs. When the wind does pick, there are always offshore waves in Nusa Dua.

A trip up the coast this morning brought us to Klotok, an excellent right point break further up the highway than most surfers travel. The fresh swell was showing its power with the biggest sets reaching 1.5x + overhead. A slight onshore wind was building through the session however the surf was still very good. The waves broke in long lines down the headland at a quick pace, with a few turn sections mixed in. There were waves of various sizes coming in. You had to be careful not to be caught by the bigger set waves that would occasionally come through the lineup.

Klotok is an excellent wave that can be surfed from big to small. Similar to Keramas, it can hold a very large swell. Get out there!
