A world-famous, shallow left reef break over sharp coral, best known for its hollow, fast barrels on a lower to mid tide. It sits on the Bukit Peninsula's cliff-lined west coast next to the iconic cliffside warungs and losmen, and became a hub of Bali's 1970s-80s surf-exploration era alongside Uluwatu and Padang-Padang. Suited to intermediate-to-advanced surfers who can handle shallow reef; best May-October dry season with consistent SW groundswells.
