About Canggu / Batu Bolong
Batu Bolong à Canggu est un reef break animé qui est devenu l'un des spots de surf les plus populaires de Bali, offrant des vagues constantes et accessibles qui initient les débutants au surf sur reef-break. La vague se brise en une droite douce qui offre aux surfeurs une introduction en douceur à la lecture des pics de reef et à des rides plus longs que les purs beach breaks plus au sud. Cela peut devenir bondé, surtout lors de bonnes houles, donc les débutants doivent rester attentifs au droit de passage et choisir des coins moins fréquentés du break. La scène dynamique des cafés et des beach-clubs rend les moments entre les sessions agréables.
Local knowledge
Malgré sa réputation amicale pour les débutants, Batu Bolong se trouve au-dessus d'un récif de corail vivant qui devient dangereusement peu profond à marée basse — les éraflures de récif et les coupures de corail sont les blessures les plus courantes, donc des chaussons et une rashguard sont fortement conseillés. De forts courants latéraux se développent lors de houles plus importantes, et le peak devient extrêmement bondé avec un mélange chaotique de débutants, d'élèves d'écoles de surf et d'intermédiaires, rendant les collisions le plus grand risque ici. Faites attention aux planches volantes à l'intérieur — le port de casque n'est pas inhabituel pour les apprenants.
Batu Bolong est facile à trouver : dirigez-vous vers Jalan Pantai Batu Bolong à Canggu et garez-vous le long de la route ou dans l'un des petits parkings payants près de la rangée de warungs flanquant le temple de la plage (Pura Batu Bolong). Pagayez à travers le canal juste au nord du temple — cela vous donne une entrée et une sortie propres loin du récif, et c'est le chemin standard utilisé par les écoles de surf. Sortez par le même chemin, en faisant attention à l'eau qui s'écoule sur le récif à l'intérieur.
Un longboard ou un mid-length à fort volume (8–9 ft) est idéal pour attraper les droites douces et roulantes et donner aux débutants la stabilité nécessaire pour trouver leurs pieds. Lors de la rare houle plus importante (plus de tête), une forme fun de 7–7'6" ou un minimal vous permet de contrôler la vitesse et de rester en sécurité sur les sections plus peu profondes du récif.
mellow — relaxed vibe.

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.
