What counts as a big October day?
The height that only 1 in 10 October days went past in the last 3 years, in the same forecast model. The figure is swell out at sea in front of each break, not the wave height at the break, and a forecast can still change.
Who shoots these breaks?
Spotted lists 5 surf photographers across these 8 breaks. Bali Surf Vision and Island Vision Surf cover all 8. Each break's page lists who covers it, and the Bali and Pecatu pages gather the photographers of the area.
