****AFTERNOON SURF UP-DATE****
Hello surfers and welcome back to your baliwaves.com for the latest run down on todays surfing and weather conditions here on the No.1 surfing holiday island of Bali.
Okey dokey, this mornings surf check of the Outer Reefs went down at 7.30Am to find wave height breaking in the 1-1ft+ range between Kuta Reef and Airport Left with the wind blowing lightly out of the North @ 1-3knot. So with nothing really happening on the Outers the crew and I from here at Home Base hit the road for Uluwatu.
Arriving around the 8.45Am mark to find wave height breaking in the 2-3ft+ range on the Racetrack and Main Peak section. First up there would have only been around 20 surfers in the water but by the time we left at lunch time there would have been around 75 spread out from Temple’s to the Racetrack. As ya’s can see in these 22 new photos I’ve loaded (yes thats right 22 new photos) Uluwatu was the place to find the best waves in Bali today. The wind actually swung around to the ESE and off-shore as we were in transit to Uluwatu so surfing conditions were clean and very tidy.
Today’s tidal info; the first one today was a 0.8mtr Low @ 8.30Am and then followed up with a 2.1mtr High @ 3.00Pm.
Weather wise it’s been hot hot hot all day and even now @ 2.45Pm the outside temperature would still be busting the 30 degree Celsius mark.
Up-Dates; Firstly the new G-Land Video Clip is on line for you and includes a bit of a visual tour through G-land. Our Man Scotto is finally back in Bali with his camera equipment and was straight on the job taking some photos around the Canggu area for us. I’ll try and get Scotto’s photos up into the Readers Report for ya’s ASAP.
Changing dollars to Rupiah on the streets of Kuta you will find 1US$=Rp11,900 — 1AU$=Rp7,800 give or take 50 Rupiah depending on vendor.
Up-Dates; You will find new surf reports from Macaroni’s Resort and the Kandui Resort up in the Mentawai islands on their respective surf report pages, so check em out before you sign off.
Ok folks that’s us for now and with a new swell expected to start showing some time in the next 24hrs ya had better stay tuned.

#21 – too funny, just too funny.
I agree Daren, I wish I woulda had my video camera there to film that guy…… it was just so funny and when he was done, he gave his wife a surfing lesson !!!
I’m pretty happy with the new design of the site. Before I was limited to only be able to load up 10 photos with each new report. In the past it’s been a “best 10 shot dilema”, I might shoot 100-200 photos each session having to pick only 10 was the dilema.
