****MORNING SURF UP-DATE**** Hello surfers, thanks for calling by and sorry about keeping you all waiting for your latest news on surfing and weather conditions out of Bali. But I kinda figured I’d be good for a 2 week break to go and check in my dear old Mum, family and friends down in Australia.
Anyway it was great to get away but it’s even better to be back here on the happy little holiday island of Bali. BTW, I travelled the East Coast of Oz from Sydney to the Gold Coast and didn’t see a decent wave in the whole two weeks. But my friends here in Bali have also assured me there hasn’t been a hell of a lot happening surf wise here either.
This mornings 7.00AM surf check of the Outer Reefs was showing wave height breaking in the 1-2ft+ range between Kuta Reef and Airport Left.
Surfing conditions were clean and smooth but the wind was coming out of the WNW @ 2-4knot+.
Tide wise today the first is going to be a 0.7mtr Low @ 7.00AM and then we will finish off the day with a 1.8mtr High around 5.30PM.
Outer Reefs , There was two surfers out on Kuta Reef but there wasn’t anything much happening in the wave department bigger than knee to waist high. No surfers on Middle Reef and then there was boat load (5 surfers) heading for Airport Left. Airport Left was the pick of the Outer Reefs with wave height in the waist to chest high region on the bigger set waves.
Looking elsewhere for a wave today , your best bet would be to head over to the East Coast and take a look between Nyang Nyang’s and Nusa Dua down on the Southern end of the island. You may also find a little relief at Serangan and at Padang Galak. Keramas will more than likely be the pick of picks on the East Coast.
Ok, like I mentioned in the opening paragraph it was good to have 2 weeks off to myself. But now is the time I gotta pay for that with over 130 emails to reply to. So if you have been cursing me for not responding to an email chill out cause I’m working on it now ! Also if I get a chance I’ll go for a ride over to the East Coast this afternoon and see of there’s anything worth displaying on your monitors.
