rive into Kedonganan (Jimbaran) beach road. Drive all the way to the end, and park your scooter with a local fisherman, at the fishmarked. Walk 5 min along the beach towards the airport, and paddle out right after the pier. It's a 10 min. paddle out, some drift, but not alot. If you're a good paddler, you could also paddle from Airport Left (20+min). You will see if it breaks from the beach.

Get a taxi there. This wave is super heavy on big swells, mainly a booging wave because of the shallowness and the fact that it's a shorey.
Atmosphere
Super hectic wave when it's over 6 feet but some days you will get a super clean peeling A frame thats makeable. Uncrowded, clear water (when you get out off the beach). Go with friends, or it might get a bit boring.
General
One of the heviest shorey in indonesia when it's on.
