SSE to NW
A short, intense and very photogenic left that barrels almost like clockwork over shallow reef, one of the easiest places in Bali to get tubed. It offers whackable walls and a fun barrel at high tide, where Balinese kids learn, then heaving thick barrels at low when it turns shallow and experts only. Best around mid tide on a head-high to head-and-a-half swell, and it holds the afternoon trades well. Prime in the dry season, April to October.
Heads up. Shallow sharp reef, shallow at low tide, crowds, sea urchins.

AboutRight now the conditions are firing hard in your favour. A 17-second groundswell wrapping in from the south-west at overhead height is the kind of long-period energy that holds shape and throws proper barrels over Bingin's shallow reef, and the wind is still light and offshore from the east this early, meaning the faces are clean and the barrels are properly defined. This is a confident surfer's wave, not a beginner's: the power is real at this size, and low-tide sections will be thick and demanding.
The afternoon holds form through roughly 2pm as the swell fills in slightly to overhead-high, though the wind will swing and strengthen from the east-south-east to around 20 kilometres per hour, which still favours this break but will start to chop the shape as the day wears on. Tide activity is minimal, so the character stays consistent through that window.
Tomorrow shapes up even bigger, probably overhead-high to well overhead, and the morning is your best bet before wind and tide work against the shape later on. The long-period swell is holding firm, so the barrels should be there too, though forecasts this far out are always subject to the ocean's mood, what looks epic on the model often plays out differently on the day.
