BALI / INDONEISA
17th – 18th May 2018
Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by the baliwaves (the original Bali surf report website since back in 1999) for our latest news and as always the best possible views on surfing and weather conditions right here on the World’s No.1 tropical surfing holiday destination and gateway to Indonesia’s surfing paradise, Bali.
Ok so thanks again to the crew at Joyo’s G-Land surf camp for keeping their
photos and surf conditions up dates rolling through, it’s been a great start to their season over in G-Land so far. So if anyone is thinking about going over to G-Land this season , then think no more, as baliwaves will give one and all a solid 15% discount into Joyo’s G-Land Surf Camp and up to 50% off for non surfing friends and partners.

Yesterday the 17th and I was indisposed spending the full day in Singapore getting my new KITAS in order. I tell ya it was pretty tough doing 14hrs in that island / city on a tight budget. But I got her done and good to go again.
Today the 18th and our 7.00AM surf check on the Outer Reefs wasn’t looking too bad with waist to head high waves breaking between Kuta Reef and Airport Left. The tide was still just moving up off the bottom so Middle Reef had some nice shaped head high waves peeling off. Surfing conditions were pretty good as well with the SE Trade wind only just starting to kick in. But when we took another look around 9.30AM it was a different ball game. The tide was filling fast and the Tradey was blowing hard off shore. No shortage of surfers on Airports or Kuta Reef at this stage.
As it shows in today’s photo gallery I got Ketut to take a run down to Uluwatu around 8.00AM and it was pretty much the same deal that happened down there. Some fun sized waves on the Main Peak and Temples before the tide got to fat, filling everything in. Ketut reckoned there was a solid crowd as we always expect when it’s small at Uluwatu. It always packs out with learners in booties, but you still even get a few of the die hard old crew out there as well.
Weather wise today there was a little bit of cloud drifting through early but it’s been just another mainly hot and sunny day here on the World’s No.1 holiday island on Bali.
This weekend is not showing a lot of promise for much swell and you’ll probably find the better waves early in the morning before the wind kicks in. Hopefully by Tuesday or Wednesday we should see some waves around the island and come next Sunday / Monday Indo should be lighting up with a L to XL swell.
We would also like to welcome aboard the famous Dreamweaver surf charter boat that runs the only 7 day 3 island (Lembongan, Lombok & Sumbawa) surfing charters to baliwaves.com. Once apon a time these 7 days surf charters were the best value on offer and a must do surf trip, but due to some shonky operators they went silent. But the Dreamweaver charter boat is still delivering groups (private or mixed) to some of the best waves and most destinations a 7 day surf trip can. The guys are still working on their website at the moment
feel free to contact us for any information in the mean time.
