Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

A fun morning of waves at Uluwatu’s Race Track! Our intermediate surfers enjoyed long lines and steady waves, with sets reaching head-high and smaller waves in the waist to shoulder-high range. The swell continued to ease from yesterday, alongside a full, fast-moving tide that kept the lineup shifting. The wind changed directions throughout the morning but conditions stayed clean.

This time of year is great for beginner and intermediate surfers in Bali. The powerful dry season swells have not yet fully arrived, the tradewind remains offshore and light, and there are still a few fewer people in the lineup.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Another beautiful morning in the world’s premier surfing holiday destination. With the dropping swell, our crew slipped down to the most exposed end of Uluwatu for some fun left reef break waves. The biggest of the set waves were up to head-high. The wind was blowing light offshore, and the waves were very clean. The waves broke with a nice blend of fast and slow sections, which is perfect for doing high-speed turns.

A powerful swell is on its way to Bali. Tomorrow morning will see overhead surf, building to well-overhead by sundown. See you out there!

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Another incredible day of waves in Uluwatu! It may be early March but it may as well be June with the conditions we are having! The surfers enjoyed overhead set waves and offshore wind at Bali’s premier wave. The waves were breaking in beautiful long lines down the reef. The surfers worked on angling their takeoff’s, getting to their feet quickly, and moving down the line to stay ahead of the wave.

The wet season, which made a very wet arrival in November, seems to have run out of steam early, leaving us with incredible weather and waves.

We’re starting the new year with a session at Uluwatu—our favorite spot. This morning, the wet season wind eased, allowing light offshore breezes over the Uluwatu area. Waves ranged from shoulder to head high, with clean, organized sets rolling in under smooth sea conditions. Surfers made the most of the opportunity to enjoy a few fun waves at this iconic break at a manageable size.

By keeping an eye on conditions this time of year, you can find yourself surfing Bali’s premier breaks with only a handful of others in the lineup.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Another excellent morning in surfing paradise! A fresh swell has brought pumping surf to Bali’s reefs and beaches. With light and variable winds, surfers spread out all across the island. Uluwatu was the highlight today, offering consistent head-high sets with a light offshore wind and long, clean lines. Our intermediate surfers found smaller in-between waves, while the advanced surfers chased the overhead sets.

We are approaching that time of year when we begin to shift the breaks we surf. Soon, we will swap Uluwatu with Chicken Wings and Geger Left, and Padang Padang with Blackstone. As always in Bali, it is forever offshore somewhere.

Fun waves this morning! Our intermediate surfers paddled out to the Race Track at Uluwatu, famous for its long lines and consistent waves. The swell has continued to drop in size and consistency since yesterday. The biggest set waves were in the head-high range, with the rest being waist to shoulder-high. The session began with a light offshore wind, before shifting to coming from the south.

We are in the perfect time of year for beginner and intermediate surfing in Bali. The swells drop to an easier size for improving on the basics. The winds are light and variable, allowing us to surf at all of our favourite breaks.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Uluwatu served up fun waves this morning! Early risers enjoyed near-empty lineups, with our crew catching waves at first light. Despite the fading swell, plenty of waves rolled through, including a few head-high sets. Conditions were clean, and a light offshore breeze held up the wave faces just a little longer, allowing for two or three turns before reaching a heavy end section that most surfers were advised to steer clear of.

Surf is expected to be smaller on Monday and Tuesday, but starting Wednesday, a solid swell is forecasted to bring consistent waves for the week ahead.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Today was another big wave day in Bali! The biggest swell of the year began to fill in yesterday and peaked overnight. This morning, Uluwatu was for the waterman on massive boards and chargers getting towed into bombs behind jet skis. The wind was moderately offshore, and the tide was moving quickly, thanks to a full moon this evening. A few surfers tackled the Bombie, challenging themselves on critical, fast walls that are known to close out at any moment. Others choose the long lines of Outside Corner, making the challenging conditions look easy.

As we approach the end of the dry season, this is likely the final XL swell of the year.

Excellent surfing conditions at Uluwatu this morning! Our intermediate and advanced surfers paddled out at first light into perfectly clean lefts breaking below the stunning cliffs. The wind was blowing lightly offshore and the sea state was very smooth. The waves were in the overhead range on the largest of sets, with plenty of shoulder-high waves mixed in. The intermediate surfers took the smaller and slower-moving rides from the shoulder. The advanced surfers sat deep on the peak, waiting for the fast and powerful ones offering racing walls and barrel sections.

We have a powerful swell filling in tomorrow afternoon. Monday and Tuesday morning are looking very good. See you out there!
