Bali Surf Guiding Reports

Another beautiful sunny day with a medium offshore wind at Bali’s premier surf spot. Quite a few people out this morning due to most other breaks being too small, and the tide being too low for an early session. Not classic Uluwatu today, but there were still some bombs to be had and a few waves running for 300 metres. We took the drone out today to give a different perspective and get a bird’s eye view.

New swell arrived this morning which was perfect size for Bingin. Sunny, clean offshore conditions and some barrels to be had. We currently have very big tides due to it being full moon, so the tide rushed in very fast. Bingin is best at mid tide, and was perfect for about 1 hour. When the tide rose above mid tide, the current got progressively stronger, but the wave quality remained very good.

Uluwatu today the condition of the waves is small than yesterday. The wind was medium strength, but blowing straight offshore so clean, quality waves on all sections of Uluwatu from Temples down to the Racetrack. Not very powerful waves today, which is great conditions for advanced surfer to improve their surfing technique.

Wave today at padang padang was smaller but still good for biginner and surf lesson and nice weather and good condition very clean, my instructor have good choise wave for my students have good fun wave ,and he was happy to ride on the wave and not many surfer at the water at the momen enjoy to surfing in the beginning

Perfect size at Uluwatu this morning for advanced surfers, the waves are starting to be bigger than yesterday and the currents are a bit stronger, good wave from the pick until rice track and very Clean, a little side wind and not many surfer at the beginning, some excellent barrel good weather and nice condition.

We went to Uluwatu this morning on the dropping tide, planning to surf the race track, but there was a local competition being held. The peak and racetrack (as always during a competition) was out of bounds, but free surfing was allowed at temples. Temples is a fast powerful wave, and usually not very crowded as a little harder to get to than the other sections. Today there were more surfers than usual due to the competition, but much better than nothing. The local surfers were ripping in the competition, and we have included some photos of the comp.

When we arrived at bingin the tide was still quite high, and quite busy with around 15 people in the water. Very good conditions for intermediate surfers – head high playful waves. As the tide dropped, the waves started barrelling and the intermediate surfers vacated the line up. Perfect size for bingin and only around 8-10 people when the waves were at their best. Very good friendly vibe in the water, and everyone happy to take their turn and share the waves.

Perfect clean conditions this morning, but the tide was a bit low, and unfortunately the wind picked up at around the time the tide got good. The wind was cross offshore and there was a bit of a bump on the wave, but still very good conditions and some long overhead rides to be had. When the tide was perfect, it was a little bit more crowded that it has been recently, as hardly anyone surfed in morning due to the tide being too low. Swell is forecast to be a bit bigger tomorrow with better tides.
