Canggu is a surfers' paradise, offering a range of surf conditions suitable for all levels of surfers, from beginners to experts. With its black-sand beach and reef breaks, Canggu promises a unique surf experience. In the early mornings, the surf is at its best with side offshore tradewinds, resulting in glassy conditions. As the day progresses, the surf can become sideshore, making it a bit challenging, but still enjoyable. With a mix of rolling waves ideal for beginners, rippable peaks for high-performance surfing, and gnarly beachfront barrels for experts, Canggu is a spot that truly has something for everyone. While the breaks can get crowded with both visiting surfers and local shredders, the local vibe is generally doable, with a bit of crowd factor, especially at the Sandbar and Rivermouth. The water quality is mostly clean and there are no hazards to worry about. Access to the beach is easy and parking is available for a small fee. So, pack your shortboard or fish and head over to Canggu for a surf trip you'll never forget! The best season to visit is from May to September.
