Surf Break Guide
Where to paddle out
Main Point
Long left-hand point break · Beginner – Advanced
The wave Medewi is famous for: a long, peeling left that can link up into one of the longest rides in West Bali on a good swell. Consistent and forgiving enough for improving surfers, with sections fast enough to keep advanced surfers interested.
Sumbul Beach Break
Beach break, both directions · Beginner – Intermediate
A more casual beach break a short walk from the villas, with softer, shorter waves. A good spot for beginners to build confidence or for an easier session on a bigger main-point day.
Best Time to Surf
Seasons and tides
Dry season
April – October
The most consistent stretch, with reliable trade-wind swells and offshore mornings. Peak season for the main point running long.
Wet season
November – March
Fewer crowds and still surfable most days, with a higher chance of onshore afternoon wind and occasional flat spells. Mornings are usually your best window.
Tide
Mid to high tide
Medewi's main point generally works best from mid to high tide, when the wave has enough water to connect through the inside sections. Check with our team for the day's conditions.
