Full description

This is a 1-hour experience in Canggu. It is run by Orange Surf School Bali, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Surf lessons around Canggu happen on beach breaks, mostly at Batu Bolong and Berawa, where the sand bottom and slow, crumbling waves suit first days. Lessons run about two hours with a soft-top board and a short session on the sand first, and instructors push beginners into whitewater rather than waiting for green waves. Mornings before 9:00 are cleanest in the dry season, April to October, when the wind is offshore; the wet season brings bigger, messier surf and afternoon onshores. Rash vests are provided and reef shoes are not needed on these beaches. Book a second lesson only after the first; most people are standing by the end of it.

The price covers Private 1-on-1 lesson with a professional instructor, Basic surfing techniques and posture training, Surfboard and leash, Rash vest and Safety locker for your belongings. It does not cover Hotel pickup and drop-off and Sunscreen, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Orange Surf School Bali. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Orange Surf School Bali before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Thanks to the excellent instruction, I was able to catch a wave on the first try! I was a little low on stamina, but I was able to rest when I asked, and I still had fun!!

They started on time, gave us a lecture in Japanese, and my 9 year old son was able to get on the board the first time, an experience he could not have had in Japan.
