When is the best surf season in Bali?
The good news is that you can surf in Bali all year round!
The season actually runs from January to December without interruption.
During the rainy season, from November to March, the crowds thin out as this season is less popular with tourists.
On the west coast, the showers are generally short but abundant and the waves are smooth and cool. Sometimes the wind may change direction for a few days and this can affect surf conditions on the west coast. In this case, a trip to the east coast is the best option.
