Additional Information
Best access is through the resorts on the beachfront - not always easy with a board - otherwise through vacant lot.Avoid the boat drivers - spoilt by international tourists - will not negotiate a price to make it worth not paddling - ask US10-20 for a one way and wont do the pick up properly. Definitely surfs best half tide and up, at low tide on a small swell it may look like it won't work at all. Very safe - easy paddle out through defined boat channel. Wave does section - if in doubt take closest half to boat channel. Never busy, no more than 6 people in 15 years surfing here and often you will be on your own!
Atmosphere
This spot is not challenging but a pleasant start after arriving, if you are staying in Nusa Dua. I have never seen more than 6 people in 15 years of surfing there
General
A cruisy wave - rarely challenging - great if you've just arrived and want to get into it slowly. A fair distance from the rest of the Bukit spots so its rarely visited unless you are staying in Nusa Dua.

Easy day - Fun wave with really easy paddle out if you get it on the outgoing tide. Paddle out from Club Med in the channel.

mc - Once Gega gets to doyble overhead Sri Lanka starts getting good; if Sri Lankas` flat head to Gega its never flat there but watch for the sneaker sets when it`s overhead as they come from nowhere and you can`t hide out there.
