****MIDDAY SURF UP-DATE****
G’Day folks and thanks for stopping by the baliwaves for today’s news on surfing and weather conditions here in Bali.
Well there was certainly no need to rush down to the beach this morning to see what was happening swell wise. As expected, wave height was lucky to be breaking in the shin to knee high plus range between Kuta Reef and Airport Left. But even so there was still a surf or die crew of half a dozen surfers out at Middle Reef, even though I never saw a wave ridden in the half hour I hung out on the beach with the boys. Likewise down at Airport Left there was an even bigger crew in the line-up. No bodies in the water on Kuta Reef. I was also speaking to Wayan “Betet” Merta this morning who made a run up to Canggu. Betet said he never bothered to get his board out with wave height in the 1-1ft+ range.
Surfing conditions were clean and glassy with only a light North Wester blowing at 1-2knot. But pretty well the same as it did yesterday will more than likely swing futher around to the W-SW as the day goes on.
Tidal info for today had us down for a 0.1mtr reef exposing Low @ 6.00AM and then coming back in for a 1.9mtr High @ 12.00noon. Finishing off the day with another Low of 0.6mtrs around 5.30PM.
Looking for a wave today you are going to be hard pressed to find anything to write home about on either side of the island. Best bet would be to check out the Nyang Nyang to Nusa Dua stretch. Hopefully tomorrow we’ll see a slight spike in wave height. Not a hell of an increase but an increase all the same.
