BALI / INDONESIA
12th – 13th November 2016
Hello friends and thanks for tuning again to the baliwaves. Hey and how about showing some love and take a look at the flashing banner over to the right of this. We are hoping to raise some so we can get some new camera equipment and helping you save some money at the same time. We’ve been doing our part here at baliwaves since ’99 bringing you a little bit of Bali each day, so show some love if you can.
Well with just around 2 weeks of this 8 week campaign left to run we have managed to scrape up just over AU$700.00 from our target of AU$6,000.00 I’d like to give the 12 – 13 people out of our average 100,000 viewers per month who did show some love a huge thank you.
Ok as it shows in today’s photo gallery after doing my morning surf check on the Outer Reefs of Tuban and only finding wave height in the 1-2ft range. We decided to take a run up to Canggu here on Bali’s West Coast hoping to find a little more energy. Arriving at 7.30AM to also only see 1-2ft+ waves with a clean off shore wind/But as soon as the tide topped and started to run back out we did see some bigger set waves with more consistency. We actually hung out for two sessions before the wind started to increase in strength out of the S-SSE.
Weather wise it was pretty hot yesterday morning before the cloud started to roll in after lunch delivering some heavy rain through the evening and into the night.
This morning the 13th and now at 7.00AM we have a mostly grey and rainy looking morning but no rain has come down here in Tuban as yet. It looks like the wind is light out of the ESE – SE so far and fingers crossed we will still have a few waves happening for us somewhere. So stay tuned to the original Bali surf report website for more news and up dates through our Twitter and Instagram feeds on site.
The next tide today in Bali will be a 2.2mtr High just before 9.00AM with the Full Moon rising on the 14th.
Changing dollars to Rupiah on the streets of Bali yesterday, — 1US$=Rp13,200 — 1AU$=Rp9,980 —

Hi Slim,
This time last week was surfing changgu, miss the place already and only been home 6 days.
But look forward to seeing you pics and report when there come out cause they keep me motivated and looking forward to getting back.You guys do such an awesome job. Must be frustrating to have such little response to your campaign, so I squeezed you another $50 ( but don’t tell the wife ), hopefully they’re all leaving it to the last minute.
Thanks for keeping me stoked
Adam
PS great to see a fellow kneeboarder in the pics.
See ya in 70 days
Hey baliwaves I’m sad that only a handful have helped out with your camera fund so far. I understande that you would be short of cash after having a serious operation and being a non rsident having to pay full price. I also really appreciate the baliwaves helped to rebuild a whole primary school in the poor part of the island of Bali, fantastic job. I tune in everyday and would also love to support this website and what you do to bring us photos and reports from Bali everyday.
It’s time for us people to give back a little bit to baliwaves, love your work and I can’t wait to log into this site everyday.
Hat off to baliwaves the best website on the internet
Please have a read of this everyone and see what what Slim has done, I also remember him mentioning that he has given away over 100 surfboards to poor kids and helped sponsor numores poor gfamilies for school fees etc
