Surf Ketewel

Ketewel - East Coast, Bali Ketewel features a right-breaking reef wave over a rocky coral bottom, known for its hollow, fast, and powerful characteristics. The spot works best at high tide during rising conditions, requiring a significant south swell to produce optimal waves. Surfers should be cautious of the sharp rocks and potential hazards like pollution and sharks. Located 2 km from Padang Galak, Ketewel is a challenging surf destination that attracts thrill-seekers. The picturesque black sand beach enhances the experience, but the uneven reef can make for an intimidating ride. While the spot may not be consistently reliable, it offers moments of long, hollow pits for those willing to navigate its complexities. Less experienced surfers may find more manageable waves nearby, but understanding the ocean's dynamics is crucial for tackling this unique surf spot. Expect a crowded scene on weekends, while weekdays may see fewer surfers.
