Padang Padang Surf Report and Spot Info

What a great session this morning! To be fair, the weather wasn’t the best, but the waves made up for it. Fewer people in the water also helped to catch more waves and we could enjoy the surf session even more.

When spending a week in Bali, surfing every day two times, the progress you make is huge. Due to the consistent surf conditions year round and the perfect learning environment, how fast you can improve your surfing skills is only a matter of dedication. There is always a good wave and a suitable surf spot for the day’s swell size and tides. Finding those spots can be tricky but with the help and local knowledge of our instructors, it is no issue at all!

Padang Padang is one of the most beautiful surf spots and beaches Bali has to offer. And for good reasons. White sand, lush nature and crystal clear water are only a few of them. Add the perfect waves and you get this picturesque scenery.

Beginner and intermediate surfers can learn and improve their surfing skills at Baby Padang, while more advanced surfers can get the barrels of their lives at the main peak, also called the “Balinese pipeline”. Today it was all about improving wave catching, turning and having a good time.

In Bali, waking up early in the morning is a common practice for most people. Especially surfers don’t want to miss the perfect waves and want to start the day with a great feeling. Having a fun surf session first thing will get you in a good mood for the rest of the day.

During this time of year, in the south of Bali, the conditions are perfect all day long. What matters most is the tides and swell size. If you wanted to, you could surf twelve hours a day. We usually do two surf sessions a day, one early morning and another one in the afternoon or whenever the conditions are best. This way you get the most out of your stay with us and can practice as much as possible without getting worn out.

A new swell arrived this morning and the waves were considerably bigger than yesterday. Nevertheless, Baby Padang was great and offered long rides for our intermediate guests. It wasn’t as easy as usual to catch waves due to the bigger swell, but with the help of our instructors, everyone got more than enough.

Breakfast was well deserved after the morning session and we are looking forward to another surf this afternoon. The tide will be much higher later on and it is perfect to start catching green waves. The gentle breaking peaks are suitable for beginners who want to start going along the green face of the wave. Tomorrow, the surf conditions will be similar before the swell drops at the end of this week.

A morning with great waves and good company can only be an awesome start to the day! This is how we start our day every day. Jumping in the water and having a fun surf session with friends will wake you up and get you ready for whatever comes next.

Today the waves were a little smaller again, but due to the incoming tide, the conditions were very good and suitable for our beginner group. Baby Padang is one of the best places in Bali to start surfing. No matter if you have previous experience or not, our surf instructors will help you get on your feet and surf in no time. Don’t miss out on this life-changing experience!

The surf at Padang Padang was great this morning with glassy conditions due to almost no wind. When surfing perfectly shaped and glassy waves, the feeling is amazing. It is almost as if you would be surfing on a cloud. A feeling you don’t get anywhere else.

The swell is still big and the conditions are a little more challenging than usual for our beginner surfers. Nevertheless, with our professional surf instructors, everyone stays safe in the water and will have a good time and when you catch waves it is even more exciting. We expect the swell to pick up a little tomorrow before it goes smaller at the beginning of next week.

With the new swell arriving today, more challenging surf conditions arise. Baby Padang still offers a safe and fun environment to catch your first waves and practice the basics. Here at our home spot, you can start from the very beginning and work your way up to the intermediate level.

When the waves are getting bigger, like today and in the coming days, it is very important to know where to go and when the best time is to surf. With the local knowledge of our surf instructors, you can be sure to be surfing at a safe spot with suitable conditions for your surfing skills. Only then, when you feel comfortable in the water, you can truly have fun and make progress.

The waves were amazing this morning at Padang Padang! Long, clean right-handers and only a few other people out. It wasn’t big but the sets had enough power and due to the mid-tide, the waves were breaking in a perfect shape.

Today and tomorrow, the swell stays pretty much the same size, but from Thursday, we expect the new swell to arrive and Uluwatu and Padang Padang will be on fire. Other spots like Toro Toro or Airport Rights will be our go-to places for our advanced groups and Jimbaran for our beginner and intermediate surfers. No matter if small or big waves, low or high tide, we also find the right spot for your surfing level.
