Canggu’s River Mouth is regarded as the standout surf spot in the area. It offers a hollow right-hand wave that breaks with barreling sections. The wave typically breaks best during high tide when the water fills in over the volcanic rock shelf. At low tide, the water becomes too shallow and the wave breaks too fast to ride. It is shallow and dangerous at low tide.
River Mouth can hold a wave size of up to about 1.5x overhead. But if the swell size is much bigger than this, then the wave tends to close out. This renowned spot often attracts top local surfers and visiting pros. For example, Rob Machado made it his home here for a few years.
You can also find a left-hand wave breaking off the peak. If the conditions are good, this can produce a fun wave.
The mornings at Canggu area are usually offshore due to the cool wind blowing from Bali’s mountainous interior. From around 10 am to 11 am in the dry season, the trade winds will blow sideshore and degrade the quality of the wavs.
The best time to surf is in the dry season, which runs from April to October. The winds are typically light and offshore during the dry season, which helps to improve the wave quality.
