Activity: Surf Lessons

Padang Padang, our home spot, was great today for the intermediate group. Shoulder high sets came in consistently and it was easy to get waves. Perfect to catch the first green waves and to start turning the board in one direction.

Once you start going left and right, along the face of the wave, it is a completely different experience. The feeling you get from surfing the unbroken wave is exciting and fun. While you are on the wave it is hard to think about anything else. Only the moment, here and now matters. After surfing a wave, the energy that goes through your body motivates you to catch more waves and keep going. That is the feeling we are all looking for!

Today, the waves were unusually small for this time of year and we decided to go to Balangan again. This spot offers great waves for intermediate surfers with smaller swells and higher tides. The long, mellow breaking waves are perfect for practice paddling, take-off, and turning.

You can get pretty long rides out here when the conditions are right. This gives you plenty of time to focus on your technique and stance on the surfboard. The more time you spend actually surfing, the more progress you will make. Besides the fun waves and the beautiful beach, the local warungs provide perfect chill-out areas after or in between the surf sessions. This beach has everything you need to enjoy your surf holiday!

The waves at Padang Padang were beautiful this morning! Perfectly breaking left and right-handers made everybody very happy. Waking up early to go surfing is what we do on a daily basis. Catching the first waves with the rising sun is magical and gets you in a good mood for the rest of the day.

The waves are a bit smaller again today, but tomorrow a new swell is expected to arrive and we are excited to surf Uluwatu and the neighboring surf spots. In the high season, with the off-shore wind blowing all day long, there are plenty of waves to choose from. You can find great waves every day no matter what your surf level is. With the local knowledge of our surf instructors, you can be sure to go to the best spots at the best times.

Another great surf session with Padang Padang Surf Camp! The sun was shining, the water crystal clear and the waves were fun to play with. As the big swell is slowly fading away, our beginner and intermediate surfers can enjoy this beautiful surf spot again.

Padang Padang is well known for its perfect waves and massive barrels, but it is also a great spot for learning to surf. When the waves are smaller, a gentle breaking peak offers ideal surf conditions for beginner, intermediate and advanced surfers. You just need to know where to sit in the line-up and what waves to choose. Our professional surf instructors have all the knowledge to guide you through your first surfing experience. With them, you can be sure to be standing on the surfboard in no time and have fun in the water.

The new big swell arrived this morning and Padang Padang was on fire. While some of the best surfers of Bali and the world surfed massive barrels at the Padang Padang Cup, our intermediate group enjoyed hip-high waves at Jimbaran.

It doesn’t look as spectacular as seeing someone deep in the tube, but what counts most is the fun you have while riding the wave. There is no point in surfing waves that are out of your comfort zone or ability level. Staying safe and being able to make progress while surfing is what we are looking for when choosing surf spots. This way you can fully enjoy the surf session and concentrate on improving your surfing skills.

Jimbaran was perfect today for our beginner group! The gentle waves and sandy bottom provide a great learning environment. To make your first experience as a new surfer, it is important to go to a surf spot where you are safe at all times.

Learning with a professional surf school or camp is highly recommended. The instructors will show you everything you need to know to stay safe and enjoy the surf lessons. Only then will you be able to make progress and have fun in the water. Tomorrow the swell will drop again and we will be doing our lessons at Padang-Padang, our home spot.

Great waves have been surfed today and our beginner group had a blast out at Padang-Padang. The incoming sets were shoulder to head high and broke very gently over the beautiful reef. Perfect to start catching the first green waves on your own.

With the Padang-Padang cup around the corner, many surfers make their way to the Bukit. A massive swell is expected to come on Thursday and the contest could potentially be on. It surely will be too big for us to surf at Padang-Padang, but watching the local and international pro surfers getting barreled is also a great experience. Don’t miss out on this spectacular event!

Another great session at Padang-Padang went down this morning. Plenty of waves have been surfed and many improvements have been made by our students. The photo review the day before had a positive impact on the performance in the water.

Surfing is one of these sports where you constantly get better if you do it regularly. You will never stop learning new things and improving your wave reading skills and surfing techniques. This is why it never gets old or boring. Every session can get you closer to your goals and you never exactly know what will happen. You might get the wave of your life or see amazing wildlife in the ocean. You never know until you go!
