Advanced surf guiding at Padang Padang

When a big swell arrives, Padang-Padang shows its true face. This is what made this wave so famous – heavy barrels! On a lower tide, a must-go-to spot for professional and expert surfers only. It is also a great spot to watch if everywhere else should be too big for you to surf.

The perfectly breaking, hollow left-hander attracts many surfers from all over the world. Everyone in the line-up is on the hunt for one of these tubes. Getting one can be a difficult task, but once you do, you will never forget! It is a wave that demands respect and commitment. Pulling out from one of these waves when you paddle for it, is not an option. “Go big or go home” is the mindset you need to surf this wave.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

The waves were great this morning at Uluwatu! Glassy, super clean conditions, and a light crowd. made it very enjoyable in the early hours. Surfing this spot is always a challenge. Not only to read the waves properly but also to navigate the line-up. You need to put some time and effort in to really get to know the many peaks Uluwatu has.

A professional guide can help you with that. Positioning is key and knowing which wave will break best can be hard at first. This is all part of the learning experience, with enough time and the right guidance though, this is no problem at all. Once you figure out the wave, you really get the most out of your surf sessions. Even though it can get very busy, one or two great waves at Uluwatu can make your day!

Beginner Surf Lessons at Padang Padang

It was a usual morning today. The onshore wind made the surf conditions tricky but still very fun at Padang-Padang Beach. As we all know, and this is also what makes surfing so interesting, is that the waves are never the same. Every day is a bit different and learning to adapt to different conditions is part of the experience.

Most people surf when the waves are great, no wonder, but surfing when the waves are not perfect can be very beneficial. There were fewer people out in the line-up, so it was easy to catch many waves. The more waves you catch, the more you progress and develop your surfing skills. Once you get used to surfing in choppy, onshore conditions, surfing when the waves are perfect again, will be much easier and even more fun.

Great waves this morning at Padang-Padang, our home spot! Shoulder-high and super fun to ride, the left and right breaking peaks made everyone happy. Offshore wind conditions shaped the waves perfect for those who woke up early.

The swell forecast predicts medium-sized waves throughout the week. These are great conditions for our beginner and intermediate surfers. Three to five feet is big enough to surf most of the spots in the Bukit and to explore some of those which are normally too challenging, like Uluwatu or Bingin. The best waves are not always the biggest, but the ones with the best shape. Keep this in mind and you will find plenty of rippable waves for all surf levels.
