17th May 2010
****AFTERNOON SURF UP-DATE****
Hi crew and welcome back to the baliwaves.com for the latest news on surfing and weather conditions here on everybody’s favorite surfing holiday island of Bali.

We’d already made up our minds the night before, this morning there was just time for a quick cup of coffee and then hit the East Coast at Keramas. I didn’t get a chance to check the Outer Reefs before we left, but I have since then heard there were waves in the 1-2ft+ range between Kuta Reef and Airport Left.

Pulling into the car park at Keramas to find wave height hitting the shelf in the head to double head high range. Only 8 other surfers in the water at first which grew to around a total of 18 by 10.00am. But the surfers that were in the water were tearing it to peices.

Surfing conditions were clean and glassy through the early morning before the wind shifted to the NE and increased to 7-9knot.

Tidal info for today had us down for a 2.5mtr High @ 12.00noon and then running out for a 0.2mtr Low just after sunset.

Weather wise today over on the East Coast it was a mixture of blue sky and light cloud cover. Temperature wise it would have been in the mid 30’s while standing out on the black sand beach of Keramas.

Swell Forecast is looking real good for the next 7 days !
