Second Australian man feared drowned in Bali

August 3rd, 2006


A second Australian man is feared dead in Bali, a day after a fellow Aussie surfer drowned at Seminyak beach. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, a 30 year old man from Victoria was missing after surfing at Uluwatu, Bali’s premier surf break.

A friend of mine told me about a situation he had at Uluwatu one time. The swell was up and the waves were lining up. He wiped out and got 2 double hold-downs, meaning he was held under water by successive waves. He made it but said it was very close.

Big waves and strong currents make Bali a fun destination, but one where you must exercise caution.
