THE BEST PLACE SURFING NUSA DUA

GEGER (NIKKO HOTEL)
The first peak is closest to the Temple, which is located on the southern point. This Right-hander offers a steep peaky takeoff and huge walls and barrels.
The Second Peak located around 150metres north is also a Peaky take off that begins the long right hander with barreling, steep walls and fatty sections to play with.
The Third Peak is also located around 150metres north again is usually the most popular peaks this also offers everything you could want from a wave all in one speedy sections that wind up barreling and then if you make it through this section you will be rewarded with a long winding wally section.
All in all the most consistent and satisfying right-hander in Bali. It is the best on either side of low tide, but still a great wave on high tide as well.

NUSA DUA
To get to this reef you have to drive in to the town itself and then weave your way south, there are a couple of other good waves in this area also so it pays to do a bit of exploring.
Season - Wet Season (October - April)
Swell Direction - South
Ideal Size - 4 - 8 ft
Best Winds - West North West
Break - Nusa Dua is a popular break in the wet season so can get crowded. Best thing with this break is that the actual reef stretches over a very large area and there are at least three or four take off spots to surf. Even though this is a popular break in the wet season it is not as crowded as the popular dry season breaks as it is also a low season for visiting surfers. The waves are powerful with good tube section but be warned that the break usually has a very strong current running and this usually works against you and gives you a lot of work to do to stay on your take off point. The reef is almost a kilometer offshore so it is better to hire one of the local boats to reach the break in comfort.

SRI LANKA
A short bowling right hander located a short paddle offshore from Bali Club Med Resort. Sri Lanka provides its best waves on mid tide and medium-large swell.
