Yesterday we went back to nusa dua (east side of the Bukit Peninsula) and explored a little more north. We found even more right breaks. These being further up the coast, I assume the wave energy was dissipated some as they were about half the size of the Geger Beach breaks previously discussed. Very nice, hollow runners, maxing out around head high. Really perfect waves. Also found a great long board wave which i think i will try out first when i get back in the water. The wave are u'i friendly, and really rippable at the same time.
New right break we found
Another right, shoulder - head high and hollow
Yes, Bali even has longboard waves...think Queens, pre-contact.
Speaking of ripable, Uluwatu has been going off, never bigger than two feet overhead, averaging about shoulder to head high, and very nice conditions. Crowds are minimal. The sun has been shinning hard for two days straight now, and the winds went completely dead. We hear the volcano has been erupting up on Java (far far away from us), and the winds this time of the year push the Vog towards us. In the mornings, Ulu's looks like mokuleia on a kona wind day. Green balls has been pretty epic looking. A clone of Quarries right in my opinion (best wave on the NS).
Mike got in late Tuesday night, and is renting a palace right on Bingin. Infinity pool, coral and limestone cottages, etc. We cruised hard, shared some Bintangs and stories, and stayed for an epic home cooked dinner served family style. There were about 16 people at the table from all over the world. The food was very good, fresh grilled mahi, a squash soup, peanut curry, steamed rice, vegetables, and a strawberry cup dessert (and it was all you can eat - i'm hurting again this morning). I sense a lot of relaxing in the days to come.....
