Bali Surf Report and Surf Forecast

With plenty of swell in the water and a low tide at first light, our intermediate surfers set off to surf the rights at Bingin. The surf was in the head-high to overhead range at this protected wave, with Bingin firing barrels for expert surfers within view. The wind was blowing lightly offshore at the base of the cliffs, and the sea state was very clean. The surfers worked on setting their rail to get down the line as quickly as possible.

Bingin Right is a fun, sheltered break for intermediate surfers when the swell picks up and the tide is low. The wave breaks in a clearly defined spot quite softly and at a measured speed.

Our group of beginner surfers had a great morning at Baby Padang. The surfers paddled out into fun-sized left and rights, eager to enjoy the thrill of harnessing the power of the waves. The surf was in the wist-high range with a few bigger sets, thanks to an incoming large swell. The August trade wind was ever present, blowing straight offshore into the waves. The sun was shining, the vibes were fun, and everyone had a great time.

The surfers worked on getting into the functional stance from the pop-up and the basics of turning, which are the first techniques that need to be learned once you are up and riding.

Our advanced group enjoyed an incredible morning at Uluwatu. The swell had dropped to a user-friendly size, down to the head-high range with a few larger set waves. The water was exceptionally clear and warm, with the offshore trade wind blowing lighter than usual for an August morning. The perfect tide coincided with our preferred time of day to surf Uluwatu- which is just as the sun comes up over the Bukit cliffs.

The rising tide gave everyone the opportunity to surf The Racetrack and The Peak. The Racetrack offered its usual fast lines. Over at the peak, the most advanced surfers enjoyed the larger, steeper waves, with even a few surfers scoring barrels.

Today is a big wave day in Bali. The premier breaks are all working their magic with the combination of a moderate offshore wind, a good range of tide, and plenty of swell. The expert surfers put on a show at The Bombie and Outside Corner at Uluwatu, and the trials of the Rip Curl Cup are on today.

Our advanced group headed out to Kuta Reef, capitalizing on the early morning high tide and significant swell. At the outside section, waves broke hard and fast, presenting barrels for those adept at making the steep drops. Down the line, the wave offered a more manageable takeoff with several turn sections before dissipating into deeper water.

Our beginner surfers had a great morning surfing the slow, mellow waves at Dreamland. With plenty of swell still hanging around, our surfers stuck to the outside left, an easier wave compared to Dreamland’s well-known A-frame peak. The wind was light offshore, the sea state calm, and the conditions beautiful. The surfers worked on getting into the functional stance, which is a key skill set to learn when just beginning your surfing journey.

However, practice in the lineup alone isn’t enough to make real improvements quickly. Back at the surf camp, our surfers will review their session’s video with our head coach. He will analyze their performance and provide targeted feedback for further development.

Our advanced surfers had an incredible morning at Uluwatu! The swell was pumping with consistent well-overhead sets pulsing through the lineup. Bali’s best surfers were out putting on a show with incredibly committed turns and skilful barrel rides. The group waited for the tide to be just right after breakfast before paddling out to the lineup. By then, the offshore wind had picked up to a moderate pace. The surfers pushed their boundaries, testing their skills and courage under the guidance of head coach Randy.

On days like these, securing a set wave can be challenging. With the help of an experienced surf guide, you can gain valuable experience in waves of consequence.

A new, powerful swell has arrived, lighting up the breaks on Bali’s coastlines. At Padang Padang, our beginner surfers enjoyed a very fun morning learning to surf at Bali’s best beginner wave! The waves were mostly about shoulder high, with a few larger set waves breaking farther outside. The wind was blowing lightly offshore, and the conditions were clean and fun. The rights were particularily good today, beaking at just the right pace for a surfer to learn to ride the waves with balance and control.

Later this afternoon, the conditions will be perfect for the famous left-hand barrels at Padang Padang. Head down the beach, grab a cocunut, and enjoy the show!

Fun waves this morning at Padang Padang! The swell has dropped to a very friendly size, with most of the waves in the shoulder-high range. The tradewind was blowing strongly, however, the offshore direction of the wind held up the waves for longer before breaking. Days like today are exactly what a new surfer needs to develop their surfing.

The surfers worked on getting into the functional stance directly from the pop-up, which is a key step towards progressing beyond a beginner level. Once you have developed the ability to ride the wave in the functional stance from the pop-up, you unlock a new level of control and confidence. See you out there!
