Location
Sanur, in the east coast of Bali is more laid to back than neighboring vacation destinations and must go in the rainy season. In addition to surf, people come to Sanur to enjoy the blue skies, 4 km of white sand beaches, calm lagoon to swim and to do all kind of water sport activities. Sanur has a great surf from September till April for all levels.
Typical thing in Sanur is to ride your bike along the beach walk, listen to live music and enjoy the chill restaurants and bars. The surf camp is 15 minute walk away from the beach and town centre. Sanur is a 20 minute taxi ride from the Ngurah Rai International Airport.

Beginner Surf Lessons
Our lessons are 2 hours per day, Max instructor to student ratio 1:4. Equipment and pick up included
Sanur Baby Reef
Level: Beginner
The beginner and early stage intermediate surf lessons are held in Sanur, on a spot called Baby Reef. It's a good spot for beginners since it's flat reef and the waves are small & mellow. The wave is really long and slow left hander wave so you can improve your surfing really fast.
Serangan
Level: Intermediate
Turtle Island aka Serangan is good for intermediate and advanced surfers. There is couple different peaks, both left and right hander waves. On a small day it's a fun for everybody but when it get's bigger it's pretty fast and hollow wave, can be barreling on a low tide.

Season
Year round Surf destination. April to November is the dry season and most popular time. Jan-Feb expect heavy afternoon rains but still plenty of surf and less crowds.
Bali benefits from an almost endless supply of Southern Ocean groundswell meaning you are very rarely disappointed. SW swells wrap around the Bukit peninsula creating an array of world class lefts including the infamous Uluwatu which is Bali's most consistent wave. It is for the more experienced surfers and it tends to section when it's smaller which does spread the crowds out by allowing take offs almost anywhere down the line. The wave is broken down into three sections, Inside corner, Racetracks and Outside corner.
Further down the Bukit peninsula you can find Padang Padang which is home to Bali's most desired barrel and a more chilled out Bali surf holidays place to stay than the busier Kuta. It is a beautiful white sandy beach with reef out back for the more advanced, while in front it is perfect for beginners.
Bingin reef is a fun short tube wave, that can get crowded.
Dreamland beach is next in line and is one of the more user friendly beaches on the Bukit. It runs from deep water and can often be a shore break where you need to avoid creasing your board or hitting one of the many tourists playing on the inside.
Balangan is slightly more secluded with another perfect looking left point. It fires when the swell direction is big enough and coming from the right direction.
For beginners & intermediates there are many quality beach breaks around including the long beach break in the centre of Kuta and up to Legian. Further north west is Canggu which has a better mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced waves than the high performance waves on the Bukit Peninusla.
On the east side of the island you can find Nusa Dua, Sanur & further up Keramus. This side of Bali tends to work better in the Wet season (October to April).
Across from the Bali Peninsula is Grajagan or G-Land. A much more remote spot than the rest of Bali, surrounded by thick jungle and wild animals. It is often referred to as the best wave in the world. A long very consistent wave with a variety of different sections. but mostly for experienced surfers.

Nice Area, close to the beach and restaurants. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful.
How were the surf lessons?
The beach was nice and close to the accommodations. Used a complementary paddle board.
How did you like the accommodation?
My first time in asia, my first time in bali and the first surf experience for me. I was really surprised about this awesome surfcamp! The beach is so close, and the stuff helped me in a really proffessional way, to join the camp and to get my first surf lessons. The teachers were really friendly and competent! The mood in this camp was allways so happy and chilled. It was calm in the night and perfectly to reset the body from the hard paddeling sessions. There was a cooling clean pool infront of a nice chill-area with a baar. The dorm was also really clean and in good conditions. I really recomment this camp, it was just my perfect start in my traveling and surf adventure
How did you like the accommodation?
Wonderful experience! I ended up staying 10 days and even wanted to stay longer. The surf lessons were great, I improved and enjoyed a lot. The vibe at Blind Dog Inn was just amazing. I wish to come back one day. Thank you!!
How did you like the accommodation?
I bought the surf camp deal -twice! They have really good instructors at the surf school and the surf spots are really close by. The blind dog inn is one of the nicest hostels i ever stayed in. Easy to make friends, the staff is amazing, best smoothie bowls ever and a nice big pool! Would defenitely recommend the surf camp for both beginners and for intermediate surfers.
How did you like the accommodation?
Spent a month in Bali during the wet season and couldn’t resist and booked the surf camp twice! Blind dog Inn was worth every penny spent, in summary: Great weather despite rainy season + amazing surf +very responsive and responsible staffs + amazing smoothie bowls and juice +clean spacious accomodation + superb vibe = top notch holiday
