Geger Left Surf Report and Spot Info

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.

Excellent surfing conditions all over Bali this morning! The wind has backed off in strength and the swell has picked up! A new, powerful swell is making an early arrival, much to the enjoyment of the surfers in Bali. Our intermediate and advanced group surfed at Geger Left this morning in pumping, up-to overhead surf with a moderate offshore wind. Thanks to the mix of swells, there were waves of all sizes, which allowed the surfers to take their pick of the size of wave they wished to surf. The waves were breaking in beautiful, tapered lines which ran at a swift pace.

The surfers worked on surfing more challenging waves, which required confidence and commitment when paddling in to the wave and a quicker pop-up. Get out there!

The Uluwatu area awoke to find a west wind blowing into the waves. This does not present a problem for us as it is always offshore somewhere in Bali. Our advanced surfers set off for Geger Left in Nusa Dua, where they found overhead offshore peaks breaking both left and right. The surfers challenged themselves with steep takeoffs and fast walls, which highlight the inefficiencies you may have when popping up and driving down the line.

In these conditions, with some guidance, you can learn techniques to get you up and riding quicker, such as optimising your positioning to give you the most time to get to your feet, angling your takeoff, and making sure your feet are in the correct position to leverage your surfboard to drive you forward.

We are back at Geger Left for the first time this season! The surf has dropped in size since yesterday, with up to head-high waves coming in at the more exposed peaks. The surfers enjoyed zippy left-breaking waves, and even a few rights. The sea state was slightly textured, but the conditions were still fun and the wave faces were smooth. The surfers worked on getting to their feet quicker in the steeper waves, learning to anticipate when to initiate their pop-up on more vertical take-offs.

You can see lots of improvements underway at this wet season staple. A new parking lot, new warungs, and restrooms will improve surfers’ experiences at the scenic surf location. Bali is growing up and it will be interesting to see the progress.

It was a beautiful, clear morning in the Nusa Dua area! Our intermediate group decided to paddle out to the clean peaks at Geger Left. The surfers found small but enjoyable waves amidst a clean offshore breeze which kept the conditions fun. The waves were in the waist-high range with the occasional larger sets, brought in by a swell of 3.5 ft. at 16 seconds, coming from 205 degrees. The waves were smaller than expected given the long-period swell, however the conditions were smooth so all could get fun rides. The surfers worked on trimming their boards down the line and identifying when to do a cutback and when to pump for more speed.

It is unusual to be surfing so much in Nusa Dua in April. Generally, you can count on the wind to be light and variable, opening up all parts of the island for surfing.

The persistent west wind made a late-season come-back this morning, blowing out the line-up at Uluwatu. No problem for us at the camp, as offshore peaks in Nusa Dua are only a short drive away. The swell has picked up in size since yesterday, and our advanced and intermediate surfers found fun, shoulder-to-head high waves at Geger Left, brought in by a swell of 3.5 ft at 12 seconds from 225 degrees. The lefts peeled nicely down the line, and the faces of the waves were clean. The surfers worked on improving their angled take-offs, which they used to quickly get up to speed to match the pace of the wave.

We will be surfing in the Nusa Dua area till Thursday based off the current forecast. Stay posted as the forecasts often change. See you out there!

Last night’s endless rain reminded us that we have not yet made it through the wet season. The rain didn’t stop our surfers as Nusa Dua can be counted on to offer fun surfing conditions this time of the year. The beginners set off to black Stone while the advanced surfers headed to Geger Left. At Geger Left, the surfers challenged themselves with excellent overhead set waves with fast walls held up by a stiff offshore wind. The swell forecast shows 3.5 ft. at 15 seconds, coming from 197 degrees, which is a good direction for the Nusa Dua area.

We have a chunky 6 ft. swell filling in tomorrow, which should send great surf to the Nusa Dua area. If it’s big enough, we can surf Sri Lanka, which is a superb right-hander that can be one of Bali’s best waves on the right day.

Our surfers were all off to the Nusa Dua area this morning in search of offshore waves. Our intermediate surfers paddled out to Geger Left while our beginners were off to Blackstone. At Geger Left, the surfers found fun head-high waves with a stiff offshore breeze keeping the faces open. The swell has continued to drop in size since yesterday, with the forecast coming in at 4 ft. at 11 seconds, coming from 213 degrees.
