****MORNING SURF UP-DATE****
G’Day folks and welcome back to the baliwaves.com the website that’s run by surfers for surfers. For those of you that are planning a holiday to Bali or for those of you that just want to stay in touch with Bali, here is today’s run down on surfing and weather conditions.
This mornings 6.30am surf recon of the Outer reefs here in Tuban was as expected re yesterdays swell forecast showing a distinct increase in wave height between Kuta Reef and Airport left. At the time Kuta Reef was perfectly peeling off some long left handers in the chest to head high plus range and no surfers in sight. Middle Reef was pushing the double head high class and no surfers in sight. Airport left had consistant chest to head high plus waves and no surfers in sight. I guess everyone was sleeping in around this part of the island.
Surfing conditions were, and still are, clean as a whistle with the wind coming lightly out of the East @ 1-3knot. Off-shore wind between Kuta and Uluwatu.
Tidal info for today has us down for a 1.1mtr Low @ 10.00am and then running back up with a 1.9mtr High around 5.00pm.
Weather wise here in Tuban this morning it’s just blue sky and sunshine with another excellent day coming on along the beach.
Later on today we’ll be taking a run down the south end of the island to get some more waves, and more photos for ya’s to mind surf. But first I got to look after my 2yr old birthday boy, Wayan Ray.
Changing dollars to Rupiah on the streets of Kuta you’ll find that –1US$=Rp9,175. — 1AU$=Rp8, 350 — Rates will vary from vendor to vendor of course.
Swell forecast for the following week is showing that we should see another small spike in wave size on Wednesday. Then fading back out through Thursday and then not much left for Friday and Saturday. Sunday morning looks like another small spike filling that should hold through Monday. Then late Monday afternoon come Tuesday morning see’s the start of a more moderate swell marching in towards Bali.
