Uluwatu is a prime beachfront in Bali that is home to some fantastic waves for surfing nuts. You might want to soak in the authentic beach town atmosphere of the place by staying at one of fine Bali resorts in the area, such as the Anantara Bali Uluwatu Resort & Spa. This trendy property is a fine example of Uluwatu hotels that serve up contemporary amenities within luxury interiors for an unforgettable resort experience. Beach enthusiasts will fine no better place to worship the surf than at Uluwatu beach, one of the world’s best destinations for catching some quality waves. Crowds abound on the beach, from locals to foreigners alike, all clamouring for some sweet surf action. Catch the Peak, which is the best offering at high and mid-tide. Located in front of the cave, it closes out at low tide, and is the most consistent, offering tubes and short, powerful waves working from 1-8 feet. Racetracks is located 100 metres past the Peak, and it’s a fast wave with easy tubes. Best to catch it at low tide and at 6 feet for some prime action. The Inside Corner is a fun wave and a tube forms as the final bowl. And for a taste of the real Uluwatu wave uncensored, ride the Outside Corner, which works with big swells (larger than 8 feet) at low tide, and the lower the tide, the better the wave, so take a 7-foot board. It’s a series of long walls great for carving and sometimes forms a beautiful final tube, with a length averaging 300 metres. For advanced surfers, try out the Temple, which is only two waves: the Outside Temple and Bombies, forming an incredible tube when it works. So hang tough and hang ten in beautiful Uluwatu!
