Hi friends we really want to thank everyone who has helped us get through the pandemic and total lack of income. I’m so happy to see the speed at which Bali is coming back into swing again. But, the Kuta and Tuban area are still a fair way off “normal” We have just been able to cover our daily living costs but that’s about it. Just for the record, due to our old camera equipment failing we did a deal with a good friend and regular visitor who stayed with us for 3 weeks. Our guy’s rent just covered a thousand dollars which we exchanged for a mid quality new camera. It was a tough 3 weeks though, with very little income, again.
But baliwaves needs camera equipment to carry on, usually we upgrade / burn out our old gear around every 4 yrs. This time round we went 6yrs and were very lucky to get through. But hopefully (fingers crossed) we are on track and on the come back trail again. Please don’t give up on us through this as hopefully we are on the last leg.

Please don’t hesitate to drop us an email for any Bali surf or accommodation info and we’ll do our best to help out.
Hi everyone and wow what a day I had on the 25th with my Family and friends up in our Family village that is tucked under Mt Agung. Very soothing for and fulfilling for me that words can not explain. A very long day so yesterday the 26th I had to declare a personal holiday for myself. I did manage a surf check late yesterday afternoon just before sunset and there were a few waves of a new swell starting to show out on the reefs.
This morning the 27th got off to a slow start and knowing there was swell out on the reefs with the wave modal forecasts all on track. I thought I would wander down to the beach here in South Kuta / Pantai Jerman and test our new camera’s range. But by 9.00am the wind had changed from a light and variable breeze to a strong on shore SSW’r. There was also some slow moving cloud above that wasn’t helping. But I wanted to see how close to Kuta reef I could get with this Nikon P1000. As it shows in a few of the photos I shot where the clouds actually gave me a break this camera can go the distance. A rough estimate would be that I was over 1km away from the surfers.
BTW it was horrible out on the reefs when the wind kicked in. Kuta Reef had a crazy crowd (around 50) of mostly learners being pushed in, and a handful of experienced surfers having to deal with it. While down on Airports a friend told me there was only a handful of surfers.
Weather wise today it has been a mostly hot and sunny day and right now at 3.20pm the temperature is still a warm 27C, humidity is at 63%. Wind direction is still predominantly coming out of the SSW at 8-10knt.
The next tide today in Bali will be a 0.1mtr Low at 4.40pm.
Tomorrows Surf Forecast has the wave models showing wave height backing off through out the day but I would still imagine there will be no shortage of waves. Wind direction is predicted to be light and variable early before turning to the South and then further to the SSE through late afternoon.
Ok friends of Bali that will be for now but we will be out early tomorrow morning to try and catch some cleaner conditions to show case Bali.
We have also added some boardshorts and trucker caps into our original baliwaves surf wear page so check it out and order up some quality made apparel exclusive to baliwaves.

Breaking News Department. Petrol has jumped 30% in price from the 4th of September so be prepared for slight increases in all prices on just about everything here in Bali. The first of the increases was LPG, our 5kg refill’s have gone from Rp135K now at 230K for the same fill. 95% of Indonesia runs on gas for cooking so that’s going to hurt everyone.
