Bali Surf Guiding Reports

Our intermediate and advanced groups were back at Dreamland at low tide for their first session this morning.

Swell was slightly smaller than yesterday but still providing waves in the chest to overhead range which provided a challenge for some but were fun and rewarding for all.

After breakfast our advanced group surfed at Uluwatu and the intermediates joined the beginners at Padang Padang for their second sessions of the day.

With a very low tide to start the day and an increase in swell size overnight, Dreamland was always going to be the spot of choice for the first session of the day for our intermediate and advanced group of surfers.

With almost no wind, the conditions were beautifully glassy and waves were breaking between shoulder and slightly overhead for the group lessons and surf guiding.

After a breakfast refuel back at camp the second session of the day took place at Uluwatu for our advanced surfers and at our local break of Padang Padang for our beginners and intermediates.

Our intermediate and advanced guiding group took the short trip down the road to Uluwatu this morning where the onshore wind was unfortunately not creating the perfectly clean conditions that we’re accustomed to.

Whatever today’s waves lacked in quality, however, was made up for by the unusually small crowd at Uluwatu and our guests were able to enjoy the waist to head high waves with a relatively low number of other surfers in the water.

Elsewhere at the surf camp this morning our beginners surfed at Dreamland for their first session before heading to our local break at Padang Padang for their second surf of the day.

It was an early start for our beginner and intermediate group this morning as they headed for Jimbaran bay at first light to catch the boat out to the reef at Toro Toro for their group and private surfing lessons.

A common favourite among our intermediate surfers, Toro Toro was breaking perfectly this morning for our students with waves of an impressive size — up to to head high — yet still friendly and accessible enough for even relatively new surfers to enjoy.

Elsewhere at camp this morning our advanced group were taking advantage of in-water surf photography services with a private lesson at Greenbowl and our beginners were surfing at our local break of Padang Padang.

Another day, another great surfing session. This morning both of our advanced and intermediate groups headed to Uluwatu for surf guiding and surf lessons. Swell is bigger and conditions are clean with light offshore wind.  The waves are shoulder high to head high or overhead high on sets.  Perfect opportunity for advanced group to practice different surf maneuvers. Our intermediate learners were trying to keep up with more experienced surfers and did their best during surf lessons.

Our beginners at the same time enjoyed their surf lessons at Toro Toro beach this morning. Very comfortable conditions for beginners surf lessons. Not so busy and waves are waist high to chest high. Seems like someone had really nice surf sessions this morning.

There were waves of varying sizes and shapes on offer this morning as our intermediate and advanced surfing groups headed the short distance to Uluwatu for their first surf sessions of the day.

The swell was a little slower coming through than it had been for the previous evening’s sunset session but conditions were clean and glassy and waves ranged from chest to overhead on the larger sets.

From our intermediates making some of their first turns down the line to our expert instructors like Blacky boosting enormous airs, everyone had a great morning of waves.

The southern swell hitting the Greenbowl reef served up waves much larger than many of the surrounding west-facing breaks this morning, and that’s where our advanced group of surfers headed for their first session of the day.

Waves were clean and coming through between shoulder-high and well overhead and all of our surfers had a great — and at times challenging — session.

After their fill of waves, everybody made their way back up the famous Green Bowl stairs and back to camp for their very well-deserved breakfast.

Our intermediate and advanced groups caught the boat at dawn this morning down to Temple at the end of the Uluwatu reef for their first surf session of the morning.

The intermediate group stayed at the north end of the reef where the waves were slightly softer and more forgiving and the advanced guiding group sat further up the reef where it was shallower and hollower.

After returning to camp for breakfast both groups surfed their second sessions of the day at Uluwatu.
