re surfing in BALI if this is your first time please be carefull, the rips can be so strong. I have never surfed in BALI but have watched husband and son. The last time in April we went to Uluwatu they both paddled out son first then husband, I was doing the videoing saw our son but no husband, then my son came out of the water and up to me and said DAD got caught in a RIP. I thought OMG but don't panic, I went to the lifeguard and they paddled to our right where the RIP was going. All came back safe, hubby said he just let the rip take him ended up on the rocks, he thought he would end up and at the next beach think it's called padang padang. But all came back O'K. SO please just be very carefull when out there in the water.
