4 Days, Multiple Departures
Surf
Are you looking for the perfect place to learn to surf in Bali? We offer tailor-made programs for surf learners and guiding sessions for the more advanced surfers.
We aim to keep things a little different. From our fine surroundings at the guesthouse, the surf points near-by, our certified surf coaches / guides, to the equipment that we use, we aim to have the highest regional standard. Therefore we’ve designed everything on our surf coaching courses to make sure that you get the most out of your surfing during your stay with us.
Our surf programs are comprehensive in that they not only include plenty of time in the water but also video analysis, feedback & surf theory classes, delivered by our team over the surfing week. Each surfing session is progressive and goal-oriented for each participant, and at the end of the surf session, your coach will discuss with you how you progressed in learning that new skill taught on the beach.
We are careful not to mix ability levels. Therefore there will be a maximum of 2:1 student-instructor ratio at all times. This will also mean that you will never have to wait for others to keep up or feel left behind.
Location and Surf-check
Every morning we will do a surf check online and with our local surfing friends and decide which beaches to head to. This will depend on factors such as the ability level of each group and the swell conditions. This means that the chances are high that you’ll have ideal conditions whatever level of surfer you are.
Your first surf lesson
Some people are extremely confident in the waves, while other people are intimidated by just being in the ocean environment, but everyone, without exception, enjoys their first day surfing.
The location of your first surf lesson will take place at one of the many finest beginner surfing beaches. The water is warm, perfect sandy bottoms, shallow waters, and no dangerous sea life or rip current makes this the ideal start point for your surfing vacation.
First element of your first surf lesson will be on the beach warming up, introducing you to the surf break and your beginner board. Our trainers will move on to teach you laying on the board at the correct position, paddling on the board, and pop-up (the jump), or, if this is not available for you, another relevant method of getting up such as a 4-step method.
Now you’re ready to enter the water and enjoy the surf, but not before you learn the necessary safety techniques.
Your first day of surfing will finish with a summary of the skills which will be covered during the upcoming week, as well as what they will lead on to and that’s where the fun starts… For most of you, within five days you can aim to go out and start catching waves all on your own!
Video analysis and surf theory
In addition to plenty of time in the water, our guests will also receive theory lessons & video analysis. With this video analysis, our coaches will give you a comprehensive review of your surfing, going through your areas of strength and areas of improvement.
Our surf points
We understand that every surfer is unique, and that’s why we adapt our surf spots to match your experience. For beginners, we’ll hit the sandy shores of Kuta and Jimbaran, where gentle beach breaks create the perfect learning environment. As you progress into an intermediate surfer, the world-famous waves at Kuta Reef, Dreamland, and Balangan await your skills. But remember, it’s all about that swell! Our experienced team carefully analyzes the conditions before each session to ensure you catch the best waves. Also, the number of guests plays a role in choosing the spot, so you’ll always have a great experience. And in the rainy season, when Uluwatu takes a break, we head to the other side, exploring the waves in Sanur and Nusa Dua.
Trust us; your surf journey with us will be one for the books, regardless of the season or your level!

Meet Cahya, your dedicated Kriya yoga instructor and guide on your journey to inner peace, strength, and well-being. With a passion for yoga that’s as boundless as the horizon, Cahya is here to help you find balance, harmony, and serenity through the practice of yoga. She holds a 500H from the Sattva Academy Risikesh India.
The lesson time is usually fixed the night before, making it easier for the planning. The timing depends on the best surf conditions for your level.
Usually for the Level 1 surfers, we use the soft tops for the first days, before we can call yourself an advanced beginner and the instructor decides for you the hard tops. For level 2 sand above, there is a range of hard tops which we can select from.
If you’re having your first go at surfing or have had a lesson or two in the past, we will start from the basics.
The basics include introduction to the surf board, the surfing spot, a warm up, a dry session on the beach explaining the basics of the pop up and safety techniques, and then going to catch the first waves in our sub-tropical waters.
Every morning we will do a surf check online and with our local surfing friends and decide which beaches to head to. This will depend on factors such as your ability level and the swell conditions.
