Canggu has become a favorite spot for surfers from all over the world—and for good reason. With long stretches of beach, consistent waves, and a laid-back surf culture, it’s the ideal place for beginners to learn and for intermediates to level up.
The sandy beach breaks in Canggu are beginner-friendly, with mellow waves in the morning and slightly more challenging sets in the afternoon. Our instructors will guide you to the right spot depending on the day’s tide and your experience level.
Each surf lesson is priced at 400,000 IDR per person, and includes everything you need for a great session in the water:
2 hours of surf instruction
A surfboard that suits your level
Safety gear (leash and rash guard)
Theory and on-beach warm-up
Ocean safety briefing
Guided coaching in the water
drinking water afterward
You don’t need to bring anything except your towel and a smile!
We keep our class sizes small so every student gets personal attention. Typically, we assign 1 instructor for every 1 students, especially during peak times, to make sure everyone feels supported.
Want to go solo? We also offer private lessons for those who prefer one-on-one coaching. Just let us know your preference when booking.
First-time surfers:
If you’ve never touched a surfboard before—no problem! We’ll start from square one. You’ll learn:
Basic ocean awareness: tides, currents, and how to stay safe
How to paddle properly and catch a wave
Standing up with balance and control
Surfing etiquette and how to share the waves
Most beginners are surprised at how quickly they stand up on the board—sometimes even within the first hour!
Intermediate surfers:
If you already have a bit of experience, we’ll help you move beyond the white water. During your lesson, you’ll work on:
Reading waves and picking the right ones to ride
Positioning and timing for better takeoffs
Turning and trimming along the face of the wave
Improving paddling technique and board control
We tailor the lesson to match your goals and give you tips to build confidence and consistency.
Our instructors are more than just surf pros—they’re locals who grew up surfing these very waves. They know the ocean here inside and out and genuinely care about your experience. With years of teaching behind them, they’re patient, encouraging, and always focused on your safety.
Each instructor is trained in first aid and CPR, so you can feel totally secure while enjoying your time in the water.
We schedule our surf lessons based on the tide and wave forecast to make sure conditions are right for learning. Most days, we run two main sessions depending on tide, make sure you text us before cause time can be changed.
Morning Lesson: 7:00 AM – 9:00 AM
Afternoon Lesson: 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Morning sessions are best for beginners because the sea is usually calmer and less crowded. We’ll confirm your time slot the day before based on the conditions and your availability.
We’re based right near Batu Bolong Beach, one of Canggu’s most loved surf spots. From the surf school, it’s just a short walk to the sand. If you’re staying nearby.
And after your lesson? You’re just steps away from great beach cafes and spots to chill out and refuel.
