SURF SPOT GUIDE

About Keramas

Keramas is one of the better-known surf options around Bali. A powerful right on Bali’s east coast with a fast wall and barrel section, often cleaner before local winds strengthen. The break is best approached as a conditions-dependent wave: swell angle, period, local wind and tide can change the character quickly. The page below combines a live forecast with practical spot information so surfers can judge whether the setup matches their ability and equipment.

BEST CONDITIONS

When does Keramas work best?

Swell

S to SE

Use swell direction together with period and size to judge how much energy will reach the break.

Wind

W to NW offshore

Favourable wind can help keep the wave face cleaner and more organised.

Tide

Mid tide often preferred

Tide interacts with swell size and the bottom shape, so compare the live curve with the ocean.

Season

Wet season mornings and mixed-season swell windows

Season tells you when the regional swell pattern is most likely to favour this spot.

The preferred pattern is S to SE swell with W to NW offshore wind. Mid tide often preferred. Longer-period swell usually adds more power and can make the surf more demanding than the raw wave-height number suggests. Always compare the forecast with what is actually happening at the beach or reef.
