Off to Bali on Tuesday for a week with the wife to celebrate her 40th birthday.Her idea to go, so what can I say!

I have been to Bali surfing a few times , last being 20 years ago on shortboards .....so has anyone supped there recently,got any tips on spots or helpful info to make the trip a memorable one.

I will be taking my 9'6 PSH Ripper which I have just turned into a quad, and a few 12 ft Creatures leggies.

Which spots work best this time of year for a SUP?

Wazza

Ps Hilly,gotta love the pointed noses

The first place I ever saw anyone SUP was at Uluatu - French boys in 10'surf w 9'6" boards - outstanding.

Impossibles is pretty good on a quiet day as is Dreamland but chocca w idiots!

Good idea to message Matty and get his recon as he is there as we speak

SUP'd impossibles and dreamland. We stayed over the bingin side of dreamland and got some great rights, with not many people on them.

Impossibles was fun, but sectioned up and got busy.

All info in our web site...
Best places for SUP and with that I mean not too many surfer, accessibility and waves that are good for SUP boards.

Sanur - SUP BALI capital...
Balian
Medewi
Kuta Reef - Second Middle

-
Also OK but with some issue..

Uluwatu - you really need to know what you are doing and stay up at Temple!
Canggu - but is super crowded!
Serangan - need mid to high tide.. go super early (dawn) or is like surfing on the crosswalk of Tokyo! The left hander on the left is not too busy..
Impossible - very fast wave works good in very big swell and high tide
Dreamland - a pain to get in the water and so many people but fun wave

If you are coming to Bali with a SUP please behave as they don't like us much already... This is due specially to visiting tourist!!!
Stay away from surfer and be respectful...
Do you know know how you guys complain about Euros... OK here is the same thing with Ozzy...
