****AFTERNOON SURF UP-DATE****
Hello folks and thanks for waiting around for the latest news on surfing and weather conditions from here on the No.1 surfing holiday destination of Bali. yes a bit later thann usual with todays report as our server had some un-scheduled problems that had us on and off-line through out the morning, but all good again now.
Ok this mornings surf check on the Outer Reefs was showing another decent boost in wave height with 3-4ft+ waves breaking between Kuta Reef and Airport Left. Middle Reef had the best waves through the early part of the morning but as the tide pushed in both Kuta Reef and Airport Left were also producing some decent waves. But by later this afternoon wave height was already backing off and only showing in the 1-3ft range. As you can see in these latest photos from Hendra and his Team, Uluwatu had some solid bombs coming through on the Main Peak. But he also reckoned wave height was dropping off through out the afternoon.
Surfing conditions first up this morning were clean and smooth although with the wind blowing light on-shore out of the West. It wasn’t until late morning that the ESE-SE off-shore Tradewind kicked in, gusting around the 9-14knot range.
Tidal info for today was saying we had a 2.4mtr High @ 11.00am and then another dry reef exposing 0.1mtr Low around 5.30pm.
Weather wise around the Tuban / Kuta part of the island we’ve had a mainly hot and sunny day with the temperature maxing out around the 30 degree Celsius mark.
Swell Forecast; This new system is really only going to get us through till Friday with waves up to 4-6ft, head high plus to double head high plus depending on location. Then on Saturday backing off again. But then again on Sunday next week it looks like we’ll be in for another solid boost with a much larger system moving in on us. Unfortunately this last system has already been down graded but still should be producing some solid waves. Starting to back off through Monday and continuing to drop through Tuesday. Small waves on Wednesday before we start to see another smaller swell fill back in around Thursday.
Sms surf report from the G-Land Surf Camp was calling wave height to have picked up nicely for all the boys and girls over at G-Land. Wave height was breaking in the 4-6ft range peeling off on Money Tree’s but no surfers were in the water yet @ 7.30am
