Airport Rights is tucked down in the southernmost tip of Bali Airport’s runway, out of sight. And while there are lots of right handers within 30 minute drive on the east coast. you will have to hit them early before the trade wind blows. Half the fun in Bali is finding them. However getting to Airport Rights is also a lot of fun, and simple too. Hiring a local boat service is your best bet for getting there fast and without expending a lot of energy. Since it is one of the farthest reef breaks from the coast, it is impractical to paddle there. The majority of Jimbaran Beach’s fisherman are familiar with the best areas, and they’ll happily take you there for some rupia. There is a shorter distance between this location and the front of the lineup if you come from Jimbaran instead of Kuta.
Kuta boat rides may be negotiated on the sand in front of Restaurant Pantai on Jalan Wana Segara. The cost of a round-trip on the boat is variable, but you should budget at least Rp100,000. Jimbaran boats may be seen on Jalan Taman Sari, next to the port and fish market.
When its on, the tides are high, and the winds are light, the crowds will come out in force. Airport Rights typically breaks between 2 and 6 feet for about 320 feet, with the occasional barrel thrown in. Being patient and not dropping in on others in the lineup will increase your chances of catching this wave alone.
