About Impossibles
Impossibles ist einer der längsten und spektakulärsten Spots auf der Bukit-Halbinsel im Süden von Bali. Getreu seinem Namen wurde die Welle früher als "unmöglich" angesehen, um sie in ihrer Gesamtheit zu surfen, aufgrund ihrer Geschwindigkeit und Länge, obwohl sie heute bekannt dafür ist, endlose Wände zu bieten, die perfekt für schnelle Manöver und tubulare Abschnitte sind. Zwischen Padang Padang und Bingin gelegen, bietet dieser Reef Break eine lange, schnelle Linkswelle, die sich entlang des Riffs in mehrere Peaks aufteilen kann. Es ist eine kraftvolle, anspruchsvolle Welle, die nicht für Anfänger empfohlen wird, aber von intermediären und fortgeschrittenen Surfern bei mittleren bis großen Bedingungen sehr genossen wird.
Local knowledge
Flaches, scharfes lebendes Korallenriff über die gesamte Länge der Welle — Stürze in den inneren Abschnitten bringen dich direkt auf das Riff, daher ist es bei Niedrigwasser und an größeren Tagen ernst. Ein starker Küstenstrom verläuft entlang des Riffs und macht das lange Paddeln zurück zu einem echten Workout, und die Geschwindigkeit der Welle bedeutet, dass es leicht ist, zwischen den mehreren Peaks gefangen zu werden. Seeigel lauern im Riffregal, und der klippenunterstützte Ausgang kann riskant werden, wenn der Swell steigt, während du draußen bist.
Parke oben an der Klippe in der Nähe der Warungs über Bingin/Impossibles und gehe die steilen Treppen und den Weg durch die Klippenunterkünfte zum Strand hinunter. Vom Sand aus timst du dein Paddeln durch den Kanal — es ist ein langes Paddeln zur Lineup, und die Strömung erledigt viel Arbeit, indem sie dich über das Riff zieht. Bei niedrigeren Gezeiten gehe vorsichtig auf demselben Weg zurück, bevor der Sand gegen die Klippe verschwindet.
Bring ein schnelles, leistungsstarkes Shortboard mit, auf dem du wirklich trimmen und pumpen kannst — diese Welle belohnt Geschwindigkeit und Rail-to-Rail-Surfen über einem dicken Board. An größeren, solideren Tagen solltest du auf ein Step-Up umsteigen, damit du die langen, rasanten Wände bewältigen und in die Tubusabschnitte einfahren kannst.
moderate — be polite, wait your turn.

Surfing in Bali
Full Bali surf guide →Bali is the beating heart of Indonesian surfing — the island that put the archipelago on the world surf map back in the early 1970s, and still the easiest place on earth to fall in love with riding waves in the tropics. It packs an absurd density of quality breaks into a small island: machine-perfect reef barrels on the Bukit Peninsula, mellow beach breaks on the west coast, and a Bali Sea wave or two over on the east.
✈️Getting there
Bali is the simplest surf destination in Indonesia to reach. Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Denpasar handles direct flights from across Asia and Australia, plus connections worldwide via Jakarta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Doha and beyond. From Australia it's a short hop from Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane.
🛵Getting around
The default surfer transport is a scooter (110–150cc). It's cheap, easy to rent daily or monthly, and lets you slip down narrow Bukit lanes and beat the traffic. Bring or rent a board rack/strap. Wear a helmet, ride sober, and know that traffic is chaotic and Bali's road-accident rate is high — many travellers come unstuck here.
🌤️Climate & season
Bali has two seasons. The dry season runs roughly April to October — sunny, lower humidity, and the prime surf window for the south and west coasts, with consistent groundswell and clean morning offshore winds. This is peak season; expect crowds and book ahead.
