Nusa Dua
To get to this reef you have to drive in to the town itself and then weave your way south, there are a couple of other good waves in this area also so it pays to do a bit of exploring.

Crowd Factor
Nusa Dua can get crowded, but there are at least three different take off spots on this long stretch of reef. Wet season crowds are no where as bad as in the dry season. This is a powerful wave with some good tube sections, but there is usually a strong current that works against you. The reef is around 500 mtrs offshore and it’s better to hire a boat and save your energy for the current.

one of the best waves on the island
there is a big ole tiger shark making himself at home here at the moment,regular sightings. i recommend you dont eat fish before you go for a splash here, or hang a piss between waves
Yeah Rodger, hey there’s also a big Tiger Shark at Kuta Reef every day and at Uluwatu…… LOL
yeah i know but this one is very big, probably the biggest tiger shark in bali
Keramas has the biggest tiger shark yet.. I seen it… not a nice sight.. do not go anywhere near the joint or you could be the shark ATTACK VICTIM MIKE..
Yeah I agree, Canggu is the only location in Bali that doesn’t have a huge Tiger shark oh yeah and Dreamland……. LOL
Hi
I’m comming over in late december with my Wife and Kids, another mate is comming with his Family as well. Any recommendations for some good bungalows/villas over in Dusa Dua that wont break the bank?

Wimps take the boat… wimps get swept away with the current in no time.

Hey
I’m planning to come for a month from mid january. Any advice on surf spots, accomodation and do’s and dont’s in general would be much appreciated. Is it really sharky?
Cheers

I surfed Nusa Dua in 2000 and had the crap scared out of me by a big 8ft+ tiger shark hunting on the outer reef.
I will be in Nusa Dua on Friday but won’t have a board. Is there anywhere I can hire a half decent stick? I don’t want to buy a new board either I am living in Hong Kong and don’t really have use for one apart from holidays.
I am going to Nusa Dua in May. How is the surf around that time of the year? I’m not bringing my board because I’m only going to be there for 3 days. Traveling from Hong Kong, and I don’t want to drag my board from Cali to Hong Kong, then to Bali. Is there any places where I can rent a newer short board?
any lefts around nusa dua?
Hi guys,
Heading to Bali in mid November for a week for honeymoon. I was thinking Nusa Dua would be a good base for the trip and was wondering if you could recomend a hotel that is located close to the surf.
One that is good value would be great.
