In addition to its maximum beauty, Bali’s beaches are also excellent for surfing. Here, I have summarized 6 of the best ones for your reference.
1. Nusa Lembongan
Nusa Lembongan is a small island located about twenty kilometers from the eastern beach of Bali. You can reach this place by speedboat in one hour.
Several cruise ships like Balihay Cruises and Bali Cruise Bounty provide a shuttle service to get to this island. This island is excellent for surfing. In addition, it has an impressive natural panorama that is very interesting for tourism. You can also snorkel and dive here.
In Nusa Lembongan, you can surf comfortably because the beach here is not too crowded. To get the most out of surfing, go surfing between April and October, when the wave reaches its maximum height.
2. Serangan Beach
Serangan Beach is located on a small island near Denpasar. Although it is close to the capital of Bali, Serangan beach is not as crowded as Kuta and Sanur. This beach is the favorite of many surfers. The wave here is good for beginners because its height is only four to six feet. The best time to surf Serangan is in the morning, from November to April.
3. Kuta Reef
Kuta Reef is an ideal surf spot on the world famous Kuta Beach. The exact location of Kuta Reef is in front of the Sandhi Pala Motel, or about 800 meters from the shoreline. To reach Kuta Reef, you can rent a boat that is available near the beach.
4.Uluwatu
Uluwatu is in the north of Bali and close to Pura Uluwatu. Only professional surfers can surf here due to its very high wave. It is often used as a venue for a surfing competition.
5. Padang Galak
Padang Galak Beach is also called Ketewel Beach. This beach is known to be one of the best surf spots in Bali. To reach this beach, you only need a twenty minute taxi ride from Denpasar. Padang Galak is also close to Sanur. This surf spot is a favorite of many tourists, especially the Japanese.
6. Medewi Beach
Medewi Beach is located in the Jembrana regency. It is easy to go to this beach. You only need to drive about two hours from Denpasar. Medewi Beach is also recognized as one of the best surf spots in Bali, suitable for both amateur and professional surfers. You can surf here at any time, but I recommend you do it in the morning.
