Hidden Paradise - Balian

Balian is a mellow wave with a left and right in front of a filthy rivermouth. The water is a bit murcky and there is the odd bull shark attack (one on the morning I arrived actually). Balian is far eneough away from the noise of Kuta and Canggu to feel like you are in your own world with plenty of fun waves which you will share with only a few people and the odd bull shark.

Love this place. Can be spooky on the right during wet season with bull sharks

I love Balian. So fun! Will be in Bali in August but not sure if I can make it to there unfortunately

I saw a bull shark completely breach here back in April this year, easily 6ft. A local fisherman snagged one in his net too, he showed me the pic and it wasn't small. Food for days.

at Balian that happened the day after our last visit there. A young Russian surfer girl was bit on the foot by a small shark and she suffered some very nasty lacerations. She is currently recovering after her surgery here in Bali. Nb: This would be the 6th shark / surfer incident at this break over the last 7-8 years.

Lol, no one mention the shark attacks

Former "hidden paradise", soon to be crowded like the rest of the island more bull sharks required.

considering there is a small chance getting bitten by the bully, I'm more confident put my plastic paddel down in the murky water then my arm, a great sup spot compare to other bali gems, ahh I miss Balian!

The "odd bull shark attack"? Really?

[messono]

There was a new shark attack just a few weeks ago. Seems like it went under the radar..
