Playgrounds (Nusa Lembongan)

Edit Spot
About

Love it. The day photos were taken was 5 foot at playgrounds, and about 10 foot at Shipwrecks (fairly serious). Daily Tourists from Bali all over the place snorkelling etc. between 10am and 3pm. They are however well out of the way and never near the line up. watch out for rookie australians thinking they own the line up. Do't be afraid to give a loud shout if you have priority but make sure you take the wave, other's willbe pissed if you leave it after a call.

Atmosphere:
Pretty freaky sitting in the lineup with huge catamarans and pontoons only 100 metres away. Great atmosphere.

Additional Info:
High tide allows right to break through about 80 metres. As tide drops, right sections and left starts to barrel. If you're not quite up to the hidings the other spots on Nusa Lembongan can dish out, check out this spot.

Can surf this spot mid to low, but be warned, although considered a beginners wave for lembonga, it's still a classic indo break-sharp, shallow and fast for the intermediate. It's a beautiful spot and well worth surfing even f you can handle shippys and lacerations, the wall is well worth a punt!

Access

Boat from Benoa Harbour of Sanur to Nusa Lembongan. Reef 100m from Bounty Cruises and Bali Hai Cruises pontoons.

If staying at the places in the cliff overlooking the break, it's a short (5 min) paddle out to this spot. Follow the rope leading out, it makes it easier to guage the channel! Paddle around the right, if you try to paddle acroos the left and then around, your arms will give up on you before you start.
