****MORNING SURF UP-DATE****
Hello to everyone stopping by the baliwaves.com to see whats going down surf and weather wise here on the happy little surfing holiday island of Bali. And it’s prety much ground hog day out there again, but at least we have some more photos for ya’s that were taken down at Bali’s Premier surfing arena of Uluwatu. Thanks to Hendra and his Photographic team stationed down there.
I took a surf recon of the Outer Reefs here in Tuban around 7.30AM to find wave height similar in size to yesterday, and if anything an inch or two bigger maybe. There were surfers on all of the main 3 sections, Middle Reef and Airport Left were attracting the most waves and with the tide still running in Airports will be the pick, with set waves in the waist to chest high class.
Surfing conditions were clean and glassy with the wind at the time coming out of the North @ 3-4knot. But it did look like she was gunna be swinging further around to the W – SW
Tidal info is saying we had a 1.9mtr High @ 11.00AM and then we’ll have a 0.6mtr Low around the 4.30PM mark.
Looking for a wave, (or a little bit more size and power at least) you’d have probably been best off heading over to the East Coast if your a late starter to Nusa Dua. Earlier you might have found a few smallies up at Canggu in the waist to chest high plus range while the wind still had some North in it.
If it’s clean safe and friendly accommodation here in Tuban only 300mtrs back from the Outer Reefs, including A/C, hot water, refridgerator & TV for US$15.00 (Rp150,000) per night (single) or US$18.00 (Rp180,000) for a couple and US$25.00 (Rp250,000) twin share. Then drop me an email but usually we do need a few weeks notice.
We are also now sending out brief random surf reports and ravings through Twitter mobile phone service so sign up today !
Changing Dollars to Rupiah on the streets of Kuta you’ll find that –1AU$=Rp8,700 — 1US$=9,300 — (give or take a few Rupiah depending on vendor). How’s that Aussie Dollar hey, looks like they are shaking it off.
Thanks again crew and finally at last… we have found the right way to display our daily photos, and I’m dead set certain your gunna be liking it.
Best Regards from the island of the God’s
