HAZARDS TO BE AWARE OF:

HAZARDS TO BE AWARE OF:

CROWDS
Nusa Dua's Surf Spots attracts a lot of surfers during the rainy season because it's one of the few places on Bali's east coast that works. Local surfers, tourists and surf camps all move to Nusa Dua when places like Uluwatu and Canggu are not working, particularly at well-known breaks like Mushroom Rock and Black Stone. The reef is expansive so you can still find some surf spots with a lineup that is less full. During the dry season Nusa Dua's Surf Spots has significantly fewer tourists because most surfers return to the west coast and early morning sessions are great to avoid the crowds.
ENTRY
Nusa Dua's surf spots can be accessed either by paddling out in designated channels or by boat but this varies by break. Paddling from the beach in the channel usually gets you to breaks like Mengiat, Black Stone,Mushroom Secret and Mushroom Rock especially when the tide is higher and the reef is more covered. These locations are well-known for their reliable and high-quality waves but they also provide lengthy paddle-outs. More remote or exposed locations, such as Chicken Wings, or the outside regions close to Sri Lanka require a boat ride to reach the line up.
TIDES
Mid-to-high tide is best for most of Nusa Dua's surf spots since low tide exposes sharp reef and creates hazardous conditions. Nusa Dua's surf spots recieve strong wet season swells particularly from November to March and faces southeast. The best conditions are light offshore breezes, clean southeast swell and a rising tide.
HAZARDS
The biggest hazards to be aware of at Nusa Dua’s surf spots are long hold downs, powerful currents and receiving successive sets of waves on the head. Surfing here in bigger conditions like 6-foot waves that are sucking dry off the reef in large swells at the widest section of the reef can be very dangerous and only for experienced surfers. There are many sea urchins in between the reef's holes so be aware when you place your feet down.

WHAT IS THE BEACH LIKE?

In Nusa Dua you will find Geger Beach, located at the southern end of the beach and Nusa Dua Beach, located at the northern end. Both are long stretches of white sand beaches leading into clear turuoise waters. The beaches line resort areas with pools, grassy lawns, sun loungers, bean bags, daybeds and all the amenities that the best resorts have to offer. Any time of day is ideal for a leisurely stroll along the lengthy path that divides the resort and beach sand.

Surf Spots

GEGER SURF BREAK

Geger is a reef break surf spot that offers both a left and a rights each with its own characteristics. Geger Left is a short, fast ride with a fun, bowling end part shaped by a deep-water channel. It is best from low to mid-tide. It is appropriate for surfers who are intermediate to experienced and if timed correctly, the paddle out via the southern channel is manageable. Geger Right is the most well known wave along Bali's East Coast, located by the Bali National Golf Course. It is an expert only surf spot when the swell is large, as this spot holds significant size and absorbs the biggest swell on the east coast. Long paddles and strong currents make it quite taxing. It works best on mid-to-high tides, although it works on all tides. The wave offers strong walls, barrels and lengthy rides for experienced surfers and boat access is frequently available.

CHICKEN WINGS SURF BREAK

The end secton of Geger Right is known as Chicken Wings, this spot is great for intermediate to advanced surfers and it produces long rides. This wave hardly ever hooks up with Geger Right due to a deep water channel that flattens the wave. It is a great substitute for Geger Right since it produces strong performance waves with less current therefore being less intense. It is easiest to get there by boat from Mengiat Beach and is best surfed at mid- to high tide.

BLACK STONE SURF BREAK

Black Stone is an intermediate to advanced surf spot in Nusa Dua, the incoming swell bounces off the rock seperating black stone and musroom rock creating a steep wave. It doesn't hold large or high-period swells and is best surfed at mid-tide. The ride on the left is longer than the one on the right. This surf spot is erratic and tide-sensitive, but it thrives on neap tides. For a softer break, beginners could go 50m south towards Mengiat.

MENGIAT SURF BREAK

Mengiat is a surf spot in Nusa Dua that is easily accessible, works best from mid to high tide and produces both left and right handers. It's easier to paddle out from the left, which is more reliable and offers a swift, enjoyable ride with a bowl close to the channel. When the swell is small this spot is good for intermediate surfers, and when it's overhead it is good for advanced surfers. An excellent choice for people seeking a more laid-back atmosphere with good surf potential.

MUSHROOM SECRET BREAK

Mushroom Secret is the mellow right-hander which is similar to Mushroom Rock but breaks smaller and gentler. When Mushroom Rock is too large or crowded, here is an excellent substitute that works best during high tide and on the same winds. Mushroom Secrets is a good choice for low intermediate to intermediate surfers looking for a more forgiving ride.

MUSHROOM ROCK BREAK

Mushroom Rock is a quick right hander reef break on Bali's east coast, it works best during high tide and the rainy season. With the correct winds it's cleaner and more hollow than neighbouring Black Stone. When the swell is big you can find heavy barrels here, so only for advanced surfers. But on smaller days you can find your intermediate surfers here.
