BALI / INDONESIA
23rd December 2016
Hello friends and thanks again for dropping into the baliwaves (wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year since back in 1999) for our latest news and the best possible views on surfing and weather conditions from here on the World’s No.1 tropical surfing holiday destination, Bali.
Firstly thanks to everyone who has chipped in or grabbed some of the limited (first 100) tickets we are getting there slowly and we still have tickets left. So Contact me asap and grab a chance to win 2 brand new surfboards, 7 day accommodation and surf trips around Bali, 7 day Villa package at Balian, 3 day stay at G-Land. Proceeds going to up dating our camera equipment so it’s a win win situation for everyone. There are 45 tickets remaining !!!
It’s going to be AU$50.00 a ticket with a maximum of 100 tickets so that makes pretty good odds for the prizes on offer. Contact me for more details and show us some support if you can. You know we are a little more than just a surf report website, we do our best to get you the highest quality photos from all over the island. Plus keeping you up to date with the local surfing industry news and events, so contact us and be in it.
Ok so here’s another 40+ photos that I shot this morning over on the East side of the island. No chance of surfing here on the West Coast again today with the Westerly wind blowing relentlessly. So I pulled into the car park at Cetu’s Warung around 7.00AM hoping to beat the wind and score some clean conditions. Wave height as it shows was sometimes hitting the double head high mark with the wind clean and still light. It wasn’t until around 10.00AM that the wind started to increase in strength out of the West and turn cross shore on Keramas. Crowd wise there was no shortage of surfers ranging between 30 – 40 in the small line up.
Weather wise even at 7.00AM over on the East Coast it was bloody hot ! A lot of thin light cloud with bursts of sun shine, it was also super hazy and no sight of the islands Nusa Lembongan / Penida to the East. It was also hard to see the set waves coming with that short period swell.
Ok crew we really wish you all a very Merry Christmas for Sunday !! I’m going to take a break tomorrow and try to get some last minute presents for my wife and kids. But we will be back with more photos and surf reports as soon as the Chrissy BBQ smoke clears ok.

Hi Slim Thanks for the pic of my son Jasper in the green boardies and red rashy. He just turned 9. He loved the waves in Keramas.
