Impossibles earns its name from the seemingly impossible length of ride it offers. This left-hand reef break stretches nearly 1km along the Bukit Peninsula cliffs.
Three distinct sections break along the reef: the outside takeoff zone, a fast middle section, and an inside reform. On solid 6ft+ swells, all three sections connect for rides exceeding 300m - the longest continuous ride in Bali. The wave has power and speed, with barrel sections in the middle.
Needs solid SW swell of 4-8ft for the sections to connect. Dry season (April-October) with SE trade winds. Mid to high tide. At low tide the shallow reef between sections makes connecting dangerous.
Cliff path from Bingin or paddle south from Padang Padang. The cliff descent is steep and can be slippery.
