Bali Surf Report and Surf Forecast

Uluwatu was a bit big and bumpy so we returned to Bingin for today’s morning session where the weather had a moody wet-season feel to it

The groms were out in force and leading from the front and, although the higher tide meant the wave wasn’t as hollow as normal there were plenty of sections on offer for big turns and the occasional barrel still to be found

We expect the wave height to continue building throughout the day and there will likely be another low-tide sunset session going down at Padang Padang this evening for all to enjoy

Balangan was the spot of choice for the intermediate surfers this morning and we took the camera along to capture some of the action.

Waves were breaking from around waist high to head high on sets and, although they were a little lumpy and bumpy, there were plenty of clean waves to go around.

Balangan can often be a tricky and fast wave when it’s a nice size for intermediate surfers, but on days like today, you can still enjoy a relatively shorter ride and practice your take-offs, cutbacks and turns.

It wasn’t obvious where the optimal waves on the Bukit would be breaking this morning so we took the camera on a trip up and down the coast to check in at a few of the world-class surf spots that are located within just a mile or so of the surf camp.

With a solid swell still in the water, Uluwatu was breaking at a challenging size and either the conditions weren’t good enough or everybody was surfed out as there was nobody in the water.

Next stop was Padang Padang where, although the swell wasn’t quite big enough, a couple of surfers were having a go.

We stopped to Impossibles to take a few photos were the fast sections were being typically difficult to race past and finally settled at Bingin where there were some lovely glass waves breaking between chest and just over head-high

We were up early for the dawn session at Bingin this morning where the waves were breaking at a much more accessible size after the last two days of XL swell

The shoulder to head-high+ waves were a little softer than can usually be found at Bingin and perfectly suited to intermediate and advanced surfers wanting to build confidence at what is an infamously short, sharp and shallow surf spot

Tomorrow’s swell should be a little smaller but in the sweet spot where just about all of the world-class spots in the local area will be breaking

The swell had peaked overnight but there were still bombs rolling into Uluwatu and breaking across the famous Outside Corner section of the reef this morning

Waves were breaking from double-overhead to 3+ times overhead and were being skilfully navigated by the crowd or around ten surfers who were up to the challenge

We expect swell to continue dropping now until Saturday before another XL swell rolls into town

It wasn’t the biggest swell of the year, but Padang Padang was glassy and perfect this morning for the group of surfers which included none other than the Kelly Slater himself

The crowd was relatively small and the waves were absolutely pumping as huge green barrels thundered down the reef and into the channel which was packed with water photographers

There were a few wipeouts and a few dodgy drop-ins but, in general, an absolute barrel-riding display being put on by all

The swell should still be around tomorrow so check back again to find out what goes down during tomorrow morning’s session.

Uluwatu was our spot of choice today for the mid-morning session where tide was mid/low with both the main peak and racetracks sections working nicely

The SSW swell was breaking in the chest to head-high range with light winds keeping things nice and clean for the relatively small group of surfers enjoying the morning

The sun has burned off the morning cloud and the tide looks good all day for the intermediate surfers in the area to enjoy the last of the current fading swell before a new swell arrives to send things back into the XL range later in the week

We were back at Uluwatu this morning for the first session of the day where conditions were glassy but a little bumpy by our usual standards

Waves were breaking between chest and head-high and being enjoyed by a crowd of around ten surfers, spread between the main peak and Racetracks sections

With favourable tides meaning the water on the reef is close to the optimal range all day, it should be a great day of waves for the intermediate/advanced surfers once the offshore breeze straightens things out
