****MIDDAY SURF UP DATE****
Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by the baliwaves (’99) for the latest news on today’s surf and weather conditions from right here on every sane surfers favorite surfing holiday destination of Bali.
Starting off the day with the mandatory 6.30AM surf check on the Outer Reefs here in the laid back little surfing and fishing comunity of Tuban. There was still some ok shaped little waves ranging in the waist to head high sector, with the occasional bigger set wave hitting Middle Reef. At the time the wind was still a little funky coming out of the North at 2-5knot. No shortage of surfers on all of the main section, and that’s pretty standard being right in the middle of our Peak Season period.
As you have already seen in today’s photo gallery, with the Northerly wind and a little bit of left over tide Canggu was definitly worth a paddle. Wave height was a consistent head to well over head with clean off shore wind through until 10.00AM when the Tradewind kicked in. There were 16 surffers riding the right hand river mouth, only 10 surfers riding the sucky left hander on the sand bar, with 3 other riders on the left hand reef in front of the cafes.
Just for the record today’s Tidal Info had us down for a 2.0mtr High @ 6.00AM and then running out for a 0.8mtr Low around the 1.00PM mark.
Weather wise it’s been a mainly sunny morning with a few patches of cloud passing over. Currently right now @ 12.15PM the outside temperature is sitting on 29 degree’s Celsius. Wind direction is coming strong out of the SE @ 12-15knot.
Changing dollars to Rupiah on the streets of Legian; — 1AU$=Rp8,750 — 1US$=Rp8,540 –.
Today’s G-Land Surf Report thanks to our friends over at the G-Land Surf Camp was calling wave height coming through in the head to almost double head high class. With the best waves hitting Kongs and down through Money Tree’s. At 10.00AM there were only 4 surfers in the water with the wind just starting to turn off shore. Another fine day of surfing scheduled for the boys and girls in camp. Don’t forget to drop us a line here at baliwaves.com if you’d like a discounted trip over to the G-land Surf Camp.
