****MORNING SURF UP-DATE****
G’Day crew and welcome aboard the baliwaves.com for yet another look at whats going down surf and weather wise here on the holiday island of Bali. And another big thanks to our photography team down at Uluwatu for providing these photos (HENDRA SURF PHOTOGRAPHY)
This mornings 6.30am surf check of the Outer Reefs was still showing wave height breaking in the 2-3ft range between Kuta Reef and Airport left. And at the time there were already 5 surfers riding Kuta Reef @ 1-2ft, Middle Reef had 5 surfers @ 2-3ft. No surfers on Airport left @ 1-2ft.
Surfing conditions were clean and smooth but with the wind once again starting off out of the North @ 2-4knot. We can expect the ESE-SE Tradewind to commence anytime from 8.00am onwards and further improve surfing conditions.
Tidal info for today is calling for a 0.9mtr Low @ 8.00am and then a High of 2.2mtr around 2.00pm.
Looking for a wave around Bali this morning you’ll find the best options around the southern end of the island at locations like Nusa Dua and Uluwatu. An early morning road trip up the West Coast would have also put you into some waves.
Our daily sms from the G-land Surf Camp came through at 7.00am and was saying wave height has backed off but still breaking in the head to head high plus range (3-4ft).
Weather wise here in Bali we have a real nice day coming on with blue sky in every direction and heading for a top temperature of around 32 degree’s Celsius. Our water temperature is perfect for boardshorts and bikini’s @ 23 degree’s celsius.
