About Impossibles

インポッシブルズは、バリ島南部のブキット半島にある最も長く、最も壮観なスポットの一つです。その名の通り、波はその速さと長さのために「不可能」と考えられていましたが、今日では速いマニューバーやチューブセクションに最適な無限の壁を提供することで知られています。パダンパダンとビンギンの間に位置するこのリーフブレイクは、リーフに沿っていくつかのピークに分かれることができる長く速い左の波を提供します。これは力強く要求の厳しい波であり、初心者にはお勧めできませんが、中級者や上級者には中程度から大きなコンディションで十分に楽しめます。

Local knowledge

Hazards

波の全長にわたって浅く鋭い生きたサンゴ礁 — 内側のセクションでのワイプアウトはリーフに直撃するため、干潮時や大きな日には非常に危険です。強い沿岸流がリーフに沿って流れ、長いパドルバックが本当にハードな運動になります。また、波の速さにより、複数のピークの間で内側に捕まるのが簡単です。ウニがリーフの棚に潜んでおり、スウェルが上がると崖の背後の出口が危険になることがあります。

Getting there

ビンギン/インポッシブルズの上にあるワルンの近くの崖の頂上に駐車し、急な階段と道を通って崖の宿泊施設を下りてビーチに向かいます。砂浜からは、チャンネルを通ってパドルアウトするタイミングを計ります — ラインアップまでの長いパドルで、流れがリーフを下に引っ張るのを助けてくれます。干潮時には、砂が崖に対して消える前に同じ道を慎重に戻ります。

Board

本当にトリムしてポンプできる速くてドライブ感のあるパフォーマンスショートボードを持参してください — この波は厚いボードよりも速さとレールからレールへのサーフィンを報います。大きくてより固い日には、ステップアップボードにサイズを上げて、長くて速い壁を作り、チューブセクションに入れるようにします。

Surfing in Bali

Full Bali surf guide →

Bali is the beating heart of Indonesian surfing — the island that put the archipelago on the world surf map back in the early 1970s, and still the easiest place on earth to fall in love with riding waves in the tropics. It packs an absurd density of quality breaks into a small island: machine-perfect reef barrels on the Bukit Peninsula, mellow beach breaks on the west coast, and a Bali Sea wave or two over on the east.

✈️Getting there

Bali is the simplest surf destination in Indonesia to reach. Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Denpasar handles direct flights from across Asia and Australia, plus connections worldwide via Jakarta, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Doha and beyond. From Australia it's a short hop from Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane.

🛵Getting around

The default surfer transport is a scooter (110–150cc). It's cheap, easy to rent daily or monthly, and lets you slip down narrow Bukit lanes and beat the traffic. Bring or rent a board rack/strap. Wear a helmet, ride sober, and know that traffic is chaotic and Bali's road-accident rate is high — many travellers come unstuck here.

🌤️Climate & season

Bali has two seasons. The dry season runs roughly April to October — sunny, lower humidity, and the prime surf window for the south and west coasts, with consistent groundswell and clean morning offshore winds. This is peak season; expect crowds and book ahead.
