Season
Year round Surf destination. April to November is the dry season and most popular time. Jan-Feb expect heavy afternoon rains but still plenty of surf and less crowds.
Bali benefits from an almost endless supply of Southern Ocean groundswell meaning you are very rarely disappointed. SW swells wrap around the Bukit peninsula creating an array of world class lefts including the infamous Uluwatu which is Bali's most consistent wave. It is for the more experienced surfers and it tends to section when it's smaller which does spread the crowds out by allowing take offs almost anywhere down the line. The wave is broken down into three sections, Inside corner, Racetracks and Outside corner.
Further down the Bukit peninsula you can find Padang Padang which is home to Bali's most desired barrel and a more chilled out Bali surf holidays place to stay than the busier Kuta. It is a beautiful white sandy beach with reef out back for the more advanced, while in front it is perfect for beginners.
Bingin reef is a fun short tube wave, that can get crowded.
Dreamland beach is next in line and is one of the more user friendly beaches on the Bukit. It runs from deep water and can often be a shore break where you need to avoid creasing your board or hitting one of the many tourists playing on the inside.
Balangan is slightly more secluded with another perfect looking left point. It fires when the swell direction is big enough and coming from the right direction.
For beginners & intermediates there are many quality beach breaks around including the long beach break in the centre of Kuta and up to Legian. Further north west is Canggu which has a better mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced waves than the high performance waves on the Bukit Peninusla.
On the east side of the island you can find Nusa Dua, Sanur & further up Keramus. This side of Bali tends to work better in the Wet season (October to April).
Across from the Bali Peninsula is Grajagan or G-Land. A much more remote spot than the rest of Bali, surrounded by thick jungle and wild animals. It is often referred to as the best wave in the world. A long very consistent wave with a variety of different sections. but mostly for experienced surfers.

How were the surf lessons?
The surf lesson with Ipul in Canggu was so much fun! Agus and Ipul are the best teachers ever! They know everything about the waves and the water. The guys are always by your side to help you, so we felt safe all the time! It was soo good to stand up and ride our first waves with their help! We will definitely recommend mybalisurf to all our friends visiting Bali!

How were the surf lessons?
I took a couple of lessons with Ipul. First off, he is located perfectly on Batu Bolong beach. If you’re with friends they can chill at the surf shop which is on the beach.
I had one surf lesson 8 years ago before I went to them, so you can say I was a beginner! They started with the technique on land, took time to explain what to do and how the waves worked. Then off for a warm-up before hitting the water & waves.
In the water they stayed by your side and told when to paddle or when to get up. They all speak good English and have enough surfboards in all different sizes. If you are tired or stop surfing and go back to the surf shop they are waiting with a fresh water for you. (you need it after all the sea water

Travelled solo
How were the surf lessons?
I took a beginner surf class with Ipul, and totally enjoyed the experience. He is a patient and gifted teacher, makes the student feel comfortable and confident and has a warmhearted and peaceful personality. I continued with a second class with him, and although I had too little time to really get into the basics, these lessons gave me a nice introduction to the fun of surfing
How were the surf lessons?
Ipul is a great surf-teacher!
First he explains the basics on the sand, and practicing standing on the board in the sand too.
In the water he helps by making speed and giving good advice. He is also very honest about when it is the best time to learn how to surf. Surfing was easier than I expected. After 2 lessons I asked him if I could go by myself, and he encouraged me to do that. If it wouldn’t go, I could always ask him again. So he didn’t try to sell me more lessons than needed, which is really honest of him! He is easygoing and gentle and I liked coming back to their surf rental. If you want a good teacher, I can definitely recommend Ipul!
