Intermediate Surf Lessons at Toro Toro

A gap between swells and a break in the trade winds lined things up nicely at Toro-Toro this morning. With the size and push backed off, the reef settled into exactly the kind of wave it’s known for — easy, playful lefts and rights peeling off in both directions, with long, open walls to work with. The crew made the most of it, picking off wave after wave through a genuinely fun session.

Dry season in Bali usually brings bigger, more powerful swell and stronger wind, and Toro-Toro can get pushed around by conditions better suited to heavier reefs like Uluwatu or Airport Right. A quieter window like today is something of an opportunity — the size drops into Toro-Toro’s sweet spot, the wind lays off, and the wave gets to show off the long, playful character that makes it the surf camp’s favourite.

Intermediate Surf Lessons At Toro Toro

Toro-Toro turned on early today, though the wind filled in before sunrise had fully settled. Conditions stayed fun regardless — steep lefts offered up two or three solid turns apiece, while the rights kept running long for anyone who could make that first section. The crew traded waves steadily through the wind, keeping the stoke high all morning.

Toro-Toro remains the surf camp’s favourite wave for good reason. The reef sets up an easy takeoff with a deep channel on both sides for a quick paddle back, and even with some texture on the face today, the rights held their shape well down the line — proof this wave can still deliver when the wind isn’t cooperating.

Intermediate Surf Guiding at Toro Toro

Toro-Toro turned on at first light with clean, shoulder-to-head-high peaks breaking in both directions thanks to the powerful swell we have today in Bali. The kids were the standouts this morning, trading long rights and a few fun lefts while the early glass held, linking turns down the line as the sun rose over Jimbaran Bay. Consistent sets kept the lineup moving, and the deep channel made for an easy paddle back after every ride.

We’re now in peak dry season, but with lighter winds than usual for this time of year, conditions have stayed extra clean. Sessions like this are why Toro-Toro remains the surf camp’s favourite wave — easy takeoffs, playful walls, and rides that run longer than you expect.

Surf Guiding at Airport Right

A light southeast trade wind put some texture on the faces this morning, but there was still plenty to work with. Most sets came in at head high, with the occasional well-overhead pulse giving the lineup a bit more energy. The mid-wave section was doing cutbacks all morning — open faces and good pace off the takeoff — and the end section threw a short, punchy barrel over the reef when the timing was right. Tide was sitting high enough to keep things manageable.

Compared to the more exposed breaks on the Bukit, Airport Right was the sensible call today: rewarding for confident intermediates and advanced surfers willing to work for it.

Advanced Surf Guiding at Uluwatu

Surf heights at Uluwatu have backed off quite a bit since yesterday. It was a slower morning out there, with the bulk of the waves sitting in the head-high range and just a few larger sets breaking the lull. There was a slight bump to the lineup, but a light offshore wind did its job to keep the faces nicely groomed.
When the sets did show up, they were lining up well. A few waves offered some proper tubes, and instructor Jerry managed to find his way into a couple of good ones. The rest of the crew had plenty to work with too, picking off some long, down-the-line walls that opened up perfectly for a few solid turn sections. Overall, just a really fun day in the water.

Advanced Surf Guiding at Sanur Reef

Today offered decent conditions at the world-famous Sanur Reef. The surf sat in the shoulder to head-high range, with a few larger sets rolling through. A north wind provided enough offshore flow to keep the wave faces clean, though it picked up noticeably as the session progressed. Surfers found solid right-handers offering fun rides and multiple turn sections, provided they could link them up.

When conditions align, Sanur Reef gets truly epic. It is renowned for being incredibly heavy, hollow, and perfect. However, those legendary days remain rare. When they finally arrive, expect a competitive lineup, as the dedicated local crowd keeps the spot firmly locked down.

Intermediate Surf Lessons at Uluwatu

Fun morning at Uluwatu in the surfing paradise of Bali! The waves were shoulder-high range with occasional bigger sets rolling through. The session started beautifully clean with light offshore winds and fast, lined-up lefts. Andrea and Jerry surfed near the peak, finding smooth, tapered lefts perfect for cruising. Meanwhile, Randy and Nour positioned themselves right at the Racetrack in search of those long, winding rides with multiple turns and barrel sections that the racetrack is famous for.

Everyone snagged great waves and enjoyed the stellar lineup conditions. However, quick timing was absolutely essential today. The tide was moving fast, making it crucial to time your paddle-out perfectly before too much water flooded the shallow reef.
