Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Another excellent morning in surfing paradise! A fresh swell has brought pumping surf to Bali’s reefs and beaches. With light and variable winds, surfers spread out all across the island. Uluwatu was the highlight today, offering consistent head-high sets with a light offshore wind and long, clean lines. Our intermediate surfers found smaller in-between waves, while the advanced surfers chased the overhead sets.

We are approaching that time of year when we begin to shift the breaks we surf. Soon, we will swap Uluwatu with Chicken Wings and Geger Left, and Padang Padang with Blackstone. As always in Bali, it is forever offshore somewhere.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Fun waves this morning! Our intermediate surfers paddled out to the Race Track at Uluwatu, famous for its long lines and consistent waves. The swell has continued to drop in size and consistency since yesterday. The biggest set waves were in the head-high range, with the rest being waist to shoulder-high. The session began with a light offshore wind, before shifting to coming from the south.

We are in the perfect time of year for beginner and intermediate surfing in Bali. The swells drop to an easier size for improving on the basics. The winds are light and variable, allowing us to surf at all of our favourite breaks.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Uluwatu served up fun waves this morning! Early risers enjoyed near-empty lineups, with our crew catching waves at first light. Despite the fading swell, plenty of waves rolled through, including a few head-high sets. Conditions were clean, and a light offshore breeze held up the wave faces just a little longer, allowing for two or three turns before reaching a heavy end section that most surfers were advised to steer clear of.

Surf is expected to be smaller on Monday and Tuesday, but starting Wednesday, a solid swell is forecasted to bring consistent waves for the week ahead.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Today was another big wave day in Bali! The biggest swell of the year began to fill in yesterday and peaked overnight. This morning, Uluwatu was for the waterman on massive boards and chargers getting towed into bombs behind jet skis. The wind was moderately offshore, and the tide was moving quickly, thanks to a full moon this evening. A few surfers tackled the Bombie, challenging themselves on critical, fast walls that are known to close out at any moment. Others choose the long lines of Outside Corner, making the challenging conditions look easy.

As we approach the end of the dry season, this is likely the final XL swell of the year.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Excellent surfing conditions at Uluwatu this morning! Our intermediate and advanced surfers paddled out at first light into perfectly clean lefts breaking below the stunning cliffs. The wind was blowing lightly offshore and the sea state was very smooth. The waves were in the overhead range on the largest of sets, with plenty of shoulder-high waves mixed in. The intermediate surfers took the smaller and slower-moving rides from the shoulder. The advanced surfers sat deep on the peak, waiting for the fast and powerful ones offering racing walls and barrel sections.

We have a powerful swell filling in tomorrow afternoon. Monday and Tuesday morning are looking very good. See you out there!

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Clean and consistent surf greeted surfers at Uluwatu this morning. The waves were mostly in the overhead range, with occasional barrel sections for the most skilled and committed surfers. The shifting seasons brought some texture to the lineup, but overall conditions remained good with clean faces. Light and variable winds changed slightly as the session progressed but didn’t impact the wave quality. As the tide pushed in, the pace of the waves slowed slightly, offering more opportunities for turns.

We are seeing signs of the seasons changing here in Bali. The consistent trade wind is starting to break down, the water is getting a little warmer, and the swells are getting smaller. See you out there!

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Our intermediate and advanced surfers headed for Uluwatu at first light for some fun-sized lefts (and rights). The waves were mostly in the head-high range, with a few larger sets coming in occasionally. The wind was blowing very light offshore, and the water is starting to warm up just a little. The line-up was very clean, and the waves were breaking at a slower pace than usual at The Racetrack. It was a great day for working on your turns, as the wave allowed time for a deep bottom turn to set up your best top turns.

We have a new swell arriving today. This afternoon, Monday, and Tuesday are looking great! See you out there!

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

This morning’s session at Uluwatu was a lot of fun for our advanced surfers. The swell has eased into a more manageable size, with light offshore winds creating perfect conditions. The atmosphere in the lineup was relaxed, and the water was cool and clear. The surf was mostly in the overhead range, with occasional larger sets hinting at the incoming swell expected later today. We enjoyed the entire session on a rising tide without the tide getting too high, making the most of the morning’s favourable conditions.

Expect several days of powerful swells from today. The standout breaks in the Uluwatu area will be reserved for experts only from this afternoon through Monday.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Our advanced group enjoyed an incredible morning at Uluwatu. The swell had dropped to a user-friendly size, down to the head-high range with a few larger set waves. The water was exceptionally clear and warm, with the offshore trade wind blowing lighter than usual for an August morning. The perfect tide coincided with our preferred time of day to surf Uluwatu- which is just as the sun comes up over the Bukit cliffs.

The rising tide gave everyone the opportunity to surf The Racetrack and The Peak. The Racetrack offered its usual fast lines. Over at the peak, the most advanced surfers enjoyed the larger, steeper waves, with even a few surfers scoring barrels.
