Here is a report on an attack this week in Balian -

This should keep the numbers down in the lineup

On my first trip we often saw bull sharks leaping fully out of the water.

Bali is a dirty toilet....

Once you have been a couple of times, and see it for what it is.... The only reason you would enjoy it is because you don't know any better..

I don't know why people rave about the place to be honest.. I do understand that it's close to Australia and a lot of people can run away from their debts/issues ect and dodge the inevitable... But overall I would rate it 1/10 and that's being generous...

I don't understand why it bothers you so much! If you don't like it just don't go there...simple

Cheers for the info Bruce.
It's still an awesome spot though with some of the friendliest local surfers I've ever met....... Beware of an outgoing current is the moral of the story I guess.
