It's easy... Get a taxi and drive to "Pura Tanah Lot"! The temple is located on a big rock in the reef and is one of the most known temples in Bali!
Take a ticket to enter the Tanah lot temple area. 3000 roupias. When front of the Temple go right 300 meters. You have 2 little black sand bays you can access by stairs. The first is quiet short but fun (left wave). Second place is mostly left and can go longer (beware of the rocks)
The parking is 8.000 ruppias. The taxi can be around 100.000 from Kuta. But take your chance ! a little motor bike is 35.000 per day. a 4X4 with driver can be around 250.000 (25 euros)per day. Nice Hotel 10 Euro around. This is no special surf destination in Bali. But one of the best temple of the island, so it's really worth stopping anyhow.
Overview
Atmosphere
Nice. Show some respect and don't undress before going in the water, this is a sacred temple area.
The sunset is really nice!! Don't go there in the high tourist season otherwise the amazing atmosphere is being destroyed!
General
So fun, easy. Fan club of tourists filming on the cliff.

surfable
Are you sure you guys are looking at the right place. Its not right at Tanah lot, but the next little bay around. A bit rocky but very surfable.

Yeah no way!
Yeah, I was there one afternoon and despite the nice swell marching in, looking at it, I couldn't see anyway anyone can ride those waves. They break right on the rocks.
