Surfing Trips in Bali for Solo Travellers

Your Trip Host travels with the group for the entire trip and handles everything outside the water: accommodation, transport, the rest of the itinerary. In the water, a licensed local agency provides certified local surf instructors, split by ability so beginners aren't paired with people who've surfed for years.

You'll share a twin room or small dorm with someone of the same gender, with private rooms available on request on most trips. Board hire and lesson structure vary by trip, so check the specific trip page for what's included.

Bali Surf & Yoga is our dedicated surf trip: two coached lessons in Canggu, two more days on the Bukit's reef breaks in Uluwatu, and a slower close in Ubud with daily yoga, built for people who want to actually get better rather than take one lesson and move on. If surfing is one part of a wider Bali trip rather than the main focus, Bali Express includes a Canggu surf lesson alongside the Mount Batur sunrise trek and Nusa Penida, and Bali & Gili Islands runs that same Canggu surf session as part of a longer twelve-day route out to the Gili Islands.

Bali's dry season, April to October, generally has the most consistent conditions for both Canggu's beach breaks and Uluwatu's reef breaks, with less rain to interrupt a session. Both spots work for beginners at the right tide and swell, which is exactly what the coaching on our trips is built to read for you. See our Bali best time to visit guide for the fuller seasonal picture.

Our groups are solo travellers aged 18 to 40, a mix of complete beginners who've never stood on a board and people who've surfed a handful of times and want proper coaching to move past the basics. What they share is wanting real instruction, not a single lesson to say they tried it, alongside a group to spend the rest of the trip with.

Reserving your place is free. Once enough travellers have joined and a departure is confirmed, usually around 10 people, we email you a confirmation with an invoice for the full trip price, paid by bank transfer in your currency within 7 days. We accept USD, GBP, EUR, AUD, CAD, NZD and INR. Check the specific trip page for current pricing.
