Trip Timeline

Here you'll find a day by day breakdown of your course.

  • Arrivals and welcome BBQ

    On arrival in Denpasar Airport you will be greeted by your trip leaders who will take you to the surf camp in Canggu for a welcome BBQ with the rest of the surfers joining you on the adventure. 

  • Progression sessions in Lombok

    We will quickly wave goodbye to the Island of Bali and take a short-haul flight (about 45 minutes) over to the Island of Lombok. We will be based in the small fishing village of Gerupuk and will hit up early morning surfs, exploring the waves by boat. This week will really push your surfing to a new level and get you progressing steadily with support from our trip leaders, coaches, and local guides. We will also take an afternoon off to go out and see Lombok's famous waterfalls.

  • Adventures in Nusa Lembongan

    A short ferry ride from Lombok takes us over to Lembongan. The six days spent in Lombok are likely to be pretty intense surfing wise so we will take a nice relaxing rest in Nusa Lembongan where we'll go snorkelling with manta rays and explore this magical little island. The waves are tidal, so we surf when the waves are good, but get some great down time to chill by the pool, go and get a massage, explore the island or do some yoga. 

  • Chilling in Canggu

    After the Island Hopping we still spend some time in the popular Canggu. With its assortment of amazing restaurants, natural beauty and multitude of fun waves it is the perfect place to build up some energy for the road trip.

  • Bali Road Trip

    For the final leg we will head road trip up to Balian and Medewi, home to one of the longest left hand waves in the world. Surfing in Medewi gives you the perfect chance to hone in your surfing skills and work on your goals set by your coaches. 

  • Happily Surfed out

    The final days will be spent back in Canggu before departing for the airport. At this point you will be sun kissed, tanned and a newly converted surf addict. The four weeks will have given you the opportunity to push your surfing to an entirely new level, as well as experienced a new culture and made great friends, and you'll be eager for the next adventure as we wave you goodbye at the airport.

No, we recommend buying bottled water only.

This trip is best suited for those who can catch their own waves and are looking to improve their skills. If you are a more advanced surfer you will also enjoy the waves on offer!

These islands tend to be low to no risk areas of Indonesia. However, we recommend checking the latest government advice on Fit For Travel and consulting your GP before you leave. 

It all depends on how much you want to spend. For example, a Nasi Goreng at a local warung will cost 25,000IDR (£1.40) and a beer is 25,000IDR (£1.40), yet a fillet steak and a cocktail at a fancy place in Canggu will cost around 250,000 (£13.80). It all depends on your budget, but we tend to eat frugally most of the time.

Yes you do.

Indonesian immigration issues a holiday visa on arrival to the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Fiji, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and USA.

 

You'll need to get a 30 day visa which are free upon arrival.

 

If you are staying longer (i.e. this 6-week trip) then we reccommend that you apply for an extended visa beforehand at home. Otherwise you can purchase the extended visa in Bali for around £30-£50. You will then have to jump through hoops for a while, so we'd recommend you organise a 60-day visa in advance of the trip.

 

Visas are only issued on the grounds that you have proof of return/onward travel out of Indonesia. You may also be asked to show proof of funds (often about £1,500), so it's always worth bringing a valid credit card for this purpose. You will also need £10 (approx 150,000 IDR) cash to pay your departure tax when leaving Indonesia – it's often included in most tickets nowadays but it does depend on the airline you fly with.
