E' lo spot più facile dell'isola, ma un pò lontano da Kuta. Per raggiungerlo basta attraversare Taban e seguire la strada. La spiaggia è rocciosa, le onde sono sinistre, lo spot non è mai affollato proprio perchè l'onda è facile e non tuba. L'onda è di tipo point-break sinistra, nelle condizioni ottimali è lunga centinaia di metri (300+). Lavora bene con la marea media. Permette un surf più rilassato rispetto agli affollati spot del sud di Bali. L'onda è meno tubante di quelle su reef ed è adatta pure a surfisti di livello medio-basso e longboards. Anche qui i trade wind sono on shore. Come nota folcloristica, la zona è molto frequentata da serpenti d'acqua, innoqui seppur potenzialmente molto velenosi. Wet/Dry Season: wet and dry season, early mornings are best as it gets easily blown out.

Medewi is a fun long left hander point break, rolling gentle over round river stones, a bit like a reversed Malibu (CA). Perfect for long boards and intermediates. Works well in the summer season, tends to close out over 7' but below that you will find one of the most mellow left hand waves of indo, can be a bit fat and slow but still lots of fun, ideal for a bit of practice.
Medewi is a perfect fun wave for all surfers. It's not scary as the others reef spots and the bottom is made of boulders rocks. This is known as the longest left hander of Bali. Come early to avoid onshore winds. The swell here is usually larger than Kuta but smaller than Balian. There is also a fun right around the southern point too, so go for a stroll.
Best Swell Direction: South Best Size: 4-6ft Best Winds: Early Morning/Light Winds Crowd Factor I've never had a problem with crowds up there, I think due to the distance from Kuta you have to travel. Also, because there are no night clubs for the party crew. You will also find the locals very friendly in and out of the surf. It is definately a long workable wave, but you won't find to many tube sections up there.
To get to Medewi you have to drive north west from Kuta for around 2-2.5 hours of hell traffic, best to leave early in the morning and beat most of it. There are also heaps of good river mouth set ups along the way, and rarely anyone surfing them. Just head towards Tabanan and keep following the main road.
