Dreamland delivered another excellent session this morning with clean, overhead waves breaking in well-organized lefts and rights. Light, variable winds and smooth ocean conditions set the stage for our intermediate surfers to challenge themselves and build confidence in the overhead surf. Dreamland’s A-frame peaks provide a forgiving setup, as the waves break with a slower, manageable pace down the line, even as the size increases.

For surfers looking to step up from Padang Padang, Dreamland is an ideal next spot. It hosts a variety of wave options catering to those ready to advance their skills while still maintaining a user-friendly experience.

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland

Fun waves at Dreamland this morning! A fresh new swell had arrived, delivering clean overhead lefts and rights. We had a great tide for the session, and the wind was blowing steadily offshore. The intermediates got some great waves at the A-frame, while the beginners stuck to the outside left. At the A-frame, the slower, softer rights were great for the surfers working on popping up quicker and with more control of the surfboard. The surfers with a bit more skill and experience enjoyed the faster lefts.

The waves at Dreamland are a great next step after a surfer feels confident at Padang Padang. There are several fun options which keep things to a user-friendly level.

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland

Fun conditions at Dreamland bright and early this morning! The shoulder-high waves were just what the surfers needed to make lasting improvements with their surfing. The wind was just offshore, the sun was shining, and the sea state was very calm. The surfers embraced the tropical conditions, catching plenty of great waves along the way. The intermediate surfers stuck to the faster left and the soft right that make up the A-frame, while the beginners surfed the soft and slow outside left.

The wide smiles on everyone’s faces showed they had a great time. You can feel the shift in the season now, with a few less people in the lineups and around the area.

Advanced surf guiding at Dreamland

A new swell has come in hot with well-overhead surf pulsing across the island. At Dreamland, the ocean was calm and beautifully clean at first light, with just a touch of offshore wind. The tide was just right for the A-frame peak. The take-offs were steep, which required some paddle strength and some courage. Once up and riding, the rights offered mellow rides as the wave fizzled out into a deep water channel. While the left offered a barrel section from take-off, followed by a fast, racy wall.

We are back into a trend of morning low tides till the 28th. With plenty of swell on the forecast, places like Dreamland and Toro-Toro are looking good!

Beginner Surf Lessons at Dreamland

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.

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland

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.

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!

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland

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.

Intermediate surf guiding at Dreamland

Fun, clean surfing at Dreamland early this morning! The surf is hanging around in the head-high range, with a light offshore wind keeping things extra clean. The waves were smooth, and the lefts were running nicely across the rock shelf. The surfers worked on improving their stance- trying to keep one hand over each rail for stability and the back knee turned inward rather than outward. These are key concepts that make up the functional stance, which a surfer must master to make it to the next level.

Dreamland is a great next step after learning the ropes at Padang Padang. The wave is just a little more challenging but moves slow enough to keep things to a beginner-friendly level.
