****AFTERNOON SURF UP-DATE****
Hey crew and thanks for sticking it out for todays news and the latest photos of surfing and weather conditions here on the best darn surfing holiday island of Bali.
Ok so this morning we were up long before the sparrows and on our way up Bali’s highway West. Arriving at Balian just after sunrise to find some nice looking 2-4 footers peeling off on the right hander just South of the river mouth. With slightly more size hitting the A frame in front of the river mouth. Surfing conditions were clean with off-shore wind coming out of the North through until 10.30 when she swung more to the ESE and off-shore back in town. Crowd wise there would have been around 10 on the right hander and another 20 spread over the A frame.
We stopped off at Kuta Reef for a quick look on the way home and the “boys” couldn’t get their boards off the roof quick enough. Surf session No.3 for the day coming up. Kuta Reef had waves peeling off in the chest to well over head sector and clean, clean off-shore wind.
Tomorrow is looking real positive for more waves here in Bali with another increase in size predicted for Sunday. We’ll be keeping it coming to ya’s here on the baliwaves.com so drop in if ya get a chance.
