Uluwatu Surf Spot Info, Report and Forecast

Swell size is a bit smaller today and quite a strong offshore. The weekend crowds have gone, and it was very much a pandemic crowd out there today. Tides are smaller so slower moving and was the right tide for the whole session. Waves were a bit slow coming, but worth the wait as there were a few very long rides on the racetrack. Racetrack is a great name as it describes the wave very well.

Waves were tiny early this morning, but as the tide came in, the new swell arrived. Waves were head high late morning, with the occasional overhead set, and seemed to be picking up. This is a long range 17 second period swell so the waves were a bit slow coming, but quite powerful. There were some new faces in the line up, new arrivals since the government started issuing visas again.

Swell size is a little bigger today. Clean head high with overhead sets, perfect for intermediate surfers to practice turns. Full moon means big tides, and surf today was best before and after high tide. Tomorrow looks unusually small, but the weekend looks very promising with a long range 16 second period swell to look forward to.

We were out at dawn this morning, to catch the perfect tide before it rushed in to a high of 2.2 metres. As expected, the swell had dropped overnight and Impossibles and Bingin were very clean but a bit small. Uluwatu was overhead, and a perfect size for most surfers, but there was morning sickness and was less than perfect. Only 1 guy out on the peak early and he was getting plenty of waves but the rides were rather short. The racetrack was the best section this morning and if you were patient there were a few 200-300 metre rides to be had. Swell is forecast to drop in size again tomorrow and be in the head high range for about a week.

Head high, perfect waves at Bali’s premier surf spot this morning. We were the first ones out this morning and it was worth the early start to get a few rides before anyone else paddled out. As the morning progressed, there were more people coming, but we were already heading back for breakfast by 8am. Surf is forecast to pick up this afternoon and will be pumping until Monday.

Swell is a little bit smaller today, but also cleaner conditions and less crowded. The waves were a bit slow coming today and not many good ones, but always at Uluwatu there were a few perfect long rides to be had. It is forecast to be much smaller tomorrow, but there will be another solid swell arriving Thursday and lasting throughout the weekend.

Smaller swell today and mostly head high waves, with the occasional bigger set. Waves were quite soft today and perfect conditions for intermediates to practice turns. The peak was not breaking good today, but the racetrack had some fun waves coming through. Light offshore winds and partially sunny.

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.
