Bali Surf Lesson Reports

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.

We scored another beautiful session at Toro Toro today! The clean conditions offered up smooth, waist-to-shoulder-high peelers that were perfect for carving.

You can’t beat the vibe here. Everything from walking past traditional jukung boats to the scenic ride out to the reef sets the perfect tone.

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.

The wet season is out in full force today with heavy rain and erratic winds, but the Bali magic remains: it’s always offshore somewhere.

That “somewhere” today was Nusa Dua. Over at Blackstone, the conditions were surprisingly clean despite the gray skies.

Even on a soggy day, Bali delivers. Compared to most places, a “bad” day here is still a win.

What a morning at Geger Left! The ocean delivered beautifully lined-up lefts offering long, fast walls perfect for performance surfing—we’re talking high-speed top turns, deep bottom turns, and solid cracks off the lip. While the lefts were the main event, regular footers managed to snag some fun rights in the mix.

Despite a touch of side-shore wind, the waves held their shape impressively with clean faces throughout the session. The lineup vibe was completely relaxed, with everyone trading waves and soaking up the conditions. Just a classic, fun session for everyone involved.

Toro-Toro delivered another enjoyable session today. The swell has picked up, but the reef offers protection that kept the waves manageable and fun. Despite stronger winds, the conditions stayed consistent, providing plenty of opportunities for everyone to catch waves and work on technique.

Long, mellow rides down the reef made it a productive morning for building confidence and improving skills. Toro-Toro remains a reliable option for beginner and intermediate surfers, showing why Bali offers such a range of spots to match the day’s conditions and give surfers the chance to progress.

The surfers headed out early to Toro-Toro, where shoulder-to-head-high waves greeted them at sunrise. On the right, steeper takeoffs led into long, mellow walls that ran farther than expected. As the tide filled in, some surfers shifted to Airport Right, where the new swell began to pulse and waves broke with more speed and power over the reef. Conditions stayed clean throughout the session.

Surfing the airport reefs is always a unique experience—from the boat ride to the lineup to planes taking off and landing nearby. The waves build quickly and run long down the reef’s angled contour.
