Kuta Reeb - "Kuta Reeb" as the locals pronounce it is such a playful wave.Just got back from Bali, spent 2 wks there. Stayed right in front of the reef.First day ou there was hollow 4ft with only 2 other aussies out there! Super hollow, easy take off with nice barrels then a sloping wall to play on for the next 100m or so, then another nice little baz on inside sect to finish up. I'm natural so surfin on my backhand, one of the funnest waves i have surfed, even on my backhand. So many more guys out airports, but not as good or hollow as Kuta Reef, so much better.I reccommend to anyone for their first surf at a reef break in Bali BEFORE goin to Ulu's, bigin etc. Get comfortable on bali's easier reefy before hiitin up the prime spots.Dreamlands and Balagan are good spots too.

kuta reef - kuta reef is an awesome wave.gets pretty crowded but is still heaps good.hollow and fast the best surf i have ever had.middles is also good with a less crowd.it is also worth getting in a bemo and driving to some of the epic places like ulus, padang padang and dreamland.always be kind to the locals and if they drop in on you remember its their break and dont be to pissed off.boat is the best way to get out and only cost25000Rp which is arond about 3aud$.if you choose to be a stingy bastard its about a 20-30 minute paddle.Indo has some of the best waves on offer so if your looking for a fun surfing trip with your mates you cant go past indonesia.
