Inside the lagoon you can kiteboard with every tide. The lower the tide the less choppy and flatter the water will be. On the famous surf reef, Kuta Reef, just 500m out, the best tides are medium to high tides. With low tides there are some rocks (nearly) exposed, so watch out for that. Kuta Reef is a lefthander, just like Middles and Airports Left which are all on the same stretch of reef. Depending on the tides and wind direction the quality of the wave changes. But keep in mind these are still Bali style waves! With medium tides and low tides you can start directly in front of Kuta Reef, at the beach in front of the Bali Hai Resort in Tuban. This beach is not very big, therefore we don't start from here with the higher tides! Best months are between December and March. The wind in this season is not very predictable. Mostly rain fronts bring in wind. Best kite sizes will be between 10 and 16 sqm. Always keep an eye open to sudden weather changes which can bring unpredictable wind! Sideshore: NNE and SSW. Tropical weather like you can expect. No need of a wetsuit, lots of suncreen lotion will do. Best months are between December and March. The wind in this season is not very reliable. Expect to kiteboard between rain fronts. Water: Shallow, Chop, Mediumwave. Features: Rooms, Shop, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
