The lesson begin on the beach, with the instructor advising on how to handle the board, paddle out, catch waves and stand up. All our instructors have surfed Bali since they were children and are qualified to Australian surfing instructor standards. They are experts on choosing the best time and location to surf.

You can arrange to have surfing lessons as part of a small group or have individual surfing instruction. The maximum group size per instructor is only 4 persons but to maximise the potential for improvement you can request one on one tuition by a balinese surfing tutor. Depending on your age and general level of fitness, we recommend you spend at least 2 hours surfing every day of your vacation, to maximise the potential for improvement.

Most surfing lessons are at Dreamland orPadang Padang beach which are beautiful location to spend the day - white sand and clear blue sea. Other locations nearby such as Uluwatu and Balangan will be chosen depending on your ability and the conditions on the day. Our objective is to find the best surfing conditions so you have the maximum enjoyment riding the bali surf.

All our surf lessons are conducted on the beach and in the ocean. We teach you the basics of balance on the surfboard, paddling the board and the Cobra position which is a technique to easily get to your feet on the board.

 

Bali surf school Surf lessons by balinese professional surfer, can be arranged for you individually or with your friends.

 

Please note that while Bali is rarely too small to surf, we sometimes get surf that is too big on the bukit for novice surfers. When the surf is too big at Padang Padang and Dreamland we will drive you to either Jimbaran bay (approx 20 mins) or Kuta beach (approx 40 mins). Alternative options are to visit the rice paddies at Ubud (breathtakingly beautiful scenery), Uluwatu temple (cultural highlight) or shopping. If the surf is very small, snorkelling and swimming are great in this area.

The Surf

Bali is world famous for always having consistent waves all year long. Its hard to come by any serious surfer out there who hasnt travelled to Bali for a surfing trip before! If this is you, pull your head in and get there as soon as possible because the waves are simply incredible. With breaks all along the coast including Uluwatu, Padang Padang, Bingin, Impossibles and Dreamland you will experience a full array of rights and lefts for all surfing abilities!

The Breaks

Uluwatu

Uluwatu is the indicator break for the west side of the bukit and is very consistent. The wide reef offers many different peaks which all turn on at different tide stages. The Peak is immediately in front of you as you paddle out of the cave and is a consistent wave that works at all tide stages. Outside corners only breaks at low tide on the biggest swells and is a classic wave. Racetrack is a fast racy wave that works best at low tide. Temples is a bit of a paddle from the main peak so tends to be less busy. The bombie will break on the biggest swells and is rideable at up to 20' or even bigger!

Padang Padang

Padang Padang is known as the balinese pipeline. It is a very fast long barrelling wave that lives up to it's reputation as the most serious wave in bali. Similar to Hawaii's very own pipeline, the bali pipeline also breaks over a shallow coral reef and is only for expert surfers. 

Lesser known is Padang Padang rights which breaks in front of a beautiful white sandy beach. This is a very easy wave and is suitable for beginners, longboarders and intermediate surfers. This is a perfect surf spot for learner surfers to progress from riding whitewater to unbroken waves. The conditions at high tide are very forgiving - a long slow unbroken wave which can reform from whitewater to swell. It is also a beautiful location for sunbathing and watching the sunset

Impossibles

Impossibles is a fast racy wave that is very picturesque. There are 3 seperate peaks on this wide reef which breaks up the crowds. On the right conditions with a good size swell and offshore wind it is possible for the sections to link up and to get a ride of a mile or more to the warungs at bingin.

Bingin

Bingin is a perfect machine wave that works best around mid tide. It is a very consistent wave and throws out many perfect barrels. If you want to practice barrel riding lefts - bingin could be the perfect location. At low tide it can be very shallow and for expert surfers only. At high tide the wave can break very soft and is where the bali children learn to surf. High tide can be perfect for long boarders or intermediate surfers.

Dreamland

Dreamland is a beautiful white sand beach a short walk from Impossibles & Bingin. There are many different breaks that work at different satges of the tide and is suitable for novice surfers as it breaks over sand. The best wave is an A frame peak that works best at low tide on a big swell. There is also a punchy shorebreak wave where you will see balinese and visitng surfers exhibiting their skills at the water's edge. Dreamland is a perfect location to spend the day surfing, sunbathing and handing out in the local warungs.

Balangan

Balangan is the next break on the bukit and is waking distance from dreamland. It is a reef break but has a beautiful white sand beach which is very quiet and beautiful. Balangan is a fun left hander that is not so fast as the other reef breaks on the bukit and is suitable for intermediate surfers.
