Bali Surf Report and Surf Forecast

Pumping surf this morning! Our intermediate surfers tested their courage with well-overhead set waves breaking at the idyllic Dreamland. The surfers sat on the A-frame peak, waiting for the set waves to come in. The lefts offered a faster ride with a steep takeoff, while the right offered a mellow ride with a slopey wall to it. The lefts were longer, especially for those able to connect the sections. The rights were easier to ride but much shorter. As always this time of year, the wind was offshore and the conditions were clean.

This swell is peaking this afternoon, leaving us with smaller surf tomorrow and Tuesday morning. Tuesday evening, another very large swell will arrive.

Plenty of swell in the water at the moment, and certainly no shortage of action! Our beginner group surfed the protected waves at Baby Padang, while the intermediate and advanced group surfed the reefs near the airport. At Padang Padang, the waves were in the overhead range on the outside, and reforming nicely into waist-high waves on the inside. The wind was light offshore, and some cloud cover protected the surfers from the sun. The more skilful surfers waited for the bigger rights outside, which offered a friendly shoulder to ride. The less experienced rode the inside reform waves, which offered easy takeoffs and lengthy rides.

Lots of swell on the surf forecast! Much more to come!

Today is a big wave day in Bali with a very large swell lighting up the Bukit Peninsula, making the breaks in the Uluwatu area for experts only. This morning, our surfers headed out to Jimbaran’s more tucked away breaks, where they enjoyed much more user-friendly waves.

Out at Uluwatu, the big wave chargers were putting on a real show, a testament to their skill and courage. After waiting for the tide to drop enough mid-morning, the big wave chargers paddled out to macking, several times overhead Uluwatu bombs. The surfers were carving up some beautiful lines, much to the delight of the onlookers on the cliff.

A fresh, new swell is here, and the surf is getting bigger by the hour. Our beginner and intermediate surfers set off for Padang Padang in search of fun, long lefts and rights. The weather was mixed, with a shifting wind and cloud cover, yet the surf conditions remained clean. The waves were in the head-high range. The rights offered a better ride, delivering beautiful tapered lines- perfect for finding the functional stance. The rights broke at a faster pace, however, reformed into a friendly soft wave, great for those just learning the feel of how to turn the board.

Tomorrow and Wednesday will see large surf. Stay safe and know your limits!

Our intermediate surfers set off before sunrise to catch the fun lefts at Balangan. With the swell dropping in size, an early high tide, and a fresh offshore breeze, the conditions were perfect for a fun morning in the lineup. The surf is down to the head-high range with a few larger sets coming in occasionally. The waves were breaking along nicely along the reef, offering the surfers fun, clean walls of water to play with. The surfers were among the first in the lineup, in time for the spectacular sunrise.

We have another big swell coming! We will begin to see the forerunning set waves tomorrow, and on Tuesday and Wednesday, we will see XL surf.

More fun waves at Baby Padang this morning! There were a few big sets left over from the large swell, but the surf has mostly calmed down to a more user-friendly size. The waves were in the head-high range, with some overhead sets breaking further outside the lineup. The wind was light offshore, and the conditions were clean. Some surfers opted to stick to the white water, while the others sat outside the lineup waiting for the bigger sets. The surfers on the inside focused on their pop-ups and functional stance, while the surfers on the outside worked on confidence and control.

It is going to be another great day in the lineup tomorrow! See you out there!

The first big swell of the season is now behind us however there are still plenty of pumping waves coming in. The surfers braved some bigger set waves but got some great rides on the smaller waves. The group waited patiently for the smaller, in-between waves, which offered more forgiving rides. The lefts were breaking nice and long, with a light offshore breeze. The surfers enjoyed the wide, open faces as it afforded the surfer plenty of time and space to work out correct foot placement for turning the board with control.

This swell is fading but we have another big one on the way. Until then, plenty of fun waves to be had. See you out there!

Pumping surf this morning! The Bukit is delivering exceptional waves right now, with everything from beginner waves, A-frame peaks, long, fast rides, to intense barrels available. Our intermediate surfers set off for Dreamland at first light to catch early morning left and rights at the A-Frame. The lefts offered a steeper and faster ride, while the rights peeled along at a slower pace. The wind was light offshore, the water temperature was perfect, and the conditions were clean.

We have the first extra-large swell of the season arriving tomorrow. Most spots on the Bukit will be way too large to be surfed safely. It will, however, make for great viewing from the cliff at Uluwatu.
