Medewi
To get to Medewi you have to drive north west from Kuta for around 2-2.5 hours of hell traffic, best to leave early in the morning and beat most of it. There are also heaps of good river mouth set ups along the way, and rarely anyone surfing them. Just head towards Tabanan and keep following the main road.

Crowd Factor
I’ve never had a problem with crowds up there, I think due to the distance from Kuta you have to travel. Also, because there are no night clubs for the party crew. You will also find the locals very friendly in and out of the surf. It is definately a long workable wave, but you won’t find to many tube sections up there.

Theres a little spot up there too calld Jims Bank but u will never find it hahahaha
I drive in 1.5 hours, but its a hell of a drive thats true! Check out the nearby Surfcamp called Brown Sugar right on the next Beach. There is a Local called Agus, he knows some incredible Beachbreaks around that Area. Awesome Choice….
narley waves!!!
i love to surf!! so does my mate joe!!
if you go by motorbike. don,t where a wite shirt. it,s black when you arrive
chilled out and Malish is the way to describe Medewi. Lots of flat spots in a point wave -you wait for the end section. then paddle all the way back.The paddle out spot has the sharpest oysters or similar they never fail to cut-and paddling in has sea urchins between the slippery boulders,,wear boots.. But that is NOTHING compared to the trip along the “Hwy of Death” that gets you there.If in a car take video of the Indonesian stunt driving team in action – it never fails to amaze. Good luck..
Hoges has nailed this reply exactly, especially the drive and the sea urchins….ouch !!
Really I would like to thank everyone who has made a constructive comment, instead of being a critic. We can’t stop the surfing boom so lets try and pass on some experience to those in need. (nice thought anyway…
