****MORNING SURF UP-DATE****
Hello surfers and welcome back to the baliwaves.com for another week of waves here on the best surfing holiday, value for dollar destination of Bali.
Ok and things were looking pretty good when I was down the beach taking a look at surfing conditions here on the Outer Reefs of Tuban. Wave height at 7.00am was showing an improvement is size and breaking in the 2-3ft+ range between Kuta Reef and Airport Left. Surfing conditions were clean enough even though the wind was coming lightly out of the West @ 2-3knot. But hopefully it will swing more to the SE-SSE as the day gets going.
Kuta Reef had waves wrapping along the reef in the waist to head high sector and there were already half a dozen surfers in the water. Middle Reef was breaking nicely and will only improve being better suited to the lower end of the tide. Chest to head high plus and also a few surfers on it. Airport Left was hitting head high on the set waves and as usual the adjacent channel was full of reef taxis. I’d also have to imagine that around the other side of the airport runway Airport Right would be producing a few sly little right handers up to head high.
Our daily sms surf report from the G-Land Surf Camp was calling a boost in wave height along the reef at G-Land with set waves pushing the double head high range on Kongs and at Money Tree’s. No surfers were in the water at the time of the report but I’m sure there’d be a few takers hooking into em by now….
I’ve also just had a phone call from our man in the water Scott who was up at Canggu shooting some more photos for us and he reckoned it was prettu good up there with wave height also pushing the 2-3ft+ range. So we will have some more photos for ya’s later this afternoon as soon as he delivers the goods. You’ll find those in our Readers report page in a few hours time.
Tidal info for today is calling for a 1.7mtr High @ 7.00am and then a 1.1mtr Low around the 1.00pm mark.
Weather wise around this part of the island we had some heavy rain come down late last night and again early this morning. Right now at 10.40am we have a blue sky and the sun is starting to suck the moisture out of the ground, heading for a hot and humid top temperature of 30 degree’s Celsius.
Up-dates, I managed to get 25 new photos loaded into the Bodyboarding report page for those that give a damn. Not bad either with the action going down on the hollow racetrack section of Uluwatu. I’ll also get the low down on the dollar to Rupiah exchange rates for ya’s later today and post em for ya’s on tomorrows report.
Ok crew I hope your week gets off to a good start, and if you do want to make it better, get down to your local travel agent and get your seat booked to Bali ASAP
Regards
Slim
