Bali Surf Report – May 25 2007

MORNING SURF UP-DATE **** Hi crew, and it’s another good looking day shaping up here in Bali !. This morning’s 6.30am surf recon of the Outer Reefs was still showing some waves breaking at Kuta Reef and all the way down to Airport Left . Nothing spectacular, but there was still the odd head high wave for anyone interested. The wind was coming lightly outta the ENE @ 1-2knot for starters and will turn more ESE around mid morning. The tide was running down for a 1.1mtr Low set for 10.00am, then filling back in for 1.7mtr High around 4.00pm this afternoon. Kuta Reef had a few takers out there for the early session and there were a few waist to shoulder high waves peeling off. Middle Reef was pushing the shoulder to head high range and there also 2-3 surfers in the water. Aiport Left was a little more consistent at shoulder to head high and looking the best out of the big 3 on the Outers. We had some solid cloud moving over early this morning and in my mind indicates the new swell is getting very close. Also the fact that Airport Left was more consistent than Middle Reef confirmed the more Southerly swell direction we are expecting. Uluwatu would once again be the best place for solid waves and you’d probably be looking at waves in the head to a few feet over head range down on the Main Peak and Temple ’s sections. Over on the East Coast of Bali I’ve also heard there’s been some nice waves happening up at Keramas, *before the Tradewind kicks in and blows out the whole East side of the island. And that can happen anytime between 8.00-10.00am. Weather wise the cloud has already passed over our little island but still showing down south out in the Indian Ocean . We’ll be dealing with more hot and sunny beach conditions with the temperature heading for a top of 33 degree’s Celsius outta the shade. The water temp is a touch cooler at 22-23 degree’s Celsius. Over on the island of Nusa Lembongan ; Our team over there has sms’d through that wave height was in the head high range at “Shipwreck’s” and that there was a solid crowd of 35 surfers in the water at 7.00am.
