What you need to know about joining our Surf Camp in Lombok, Indonesia with details on pricing, what's included surf sessions, yoga & recovery plus a whole lot more!
Our check-in is at 2pm. We do not provide instruction on arrivals day, so it's completely up to you. If you want to show up early and hang out by the pool or grab a tasty bite at our restaurant, we'd be stoked to have you anytime after 12pm. Our SurfWeek briefing starts at 5:30pm, so we do ask that you are onsite by that time.
Given the dynamic and ever-changing ocean conditions, we like to take things day-by-day. Every afternoon, our Surf Program Manager checks the surf forecast and establishes a timeline for the next day.
Typically, you'll wake up to a delicious complimentary team breakfast, group up to surf, have lunch and then surf again. We try to surf twice a day - again - depending on the conditions.
It's also not unusual for us to leave the camp in the morning, surf twice and come back in the afternoon.
Back at camp, we will also do your video and photo analysis.
We then have onsite yoga available for all guests as well as a recovery center with ice bath and sauna to help soothe post-surf fatigue.
On Sunday morning, you'll have a theoretical class and tactical surf training before heading out to the beach.
You'll learn about basic know-how, safety and how to handle your surfboard. Then, upon arrival at Selong Belanak Beach, you'll practice your pop-ups a few times on the sand before going in the water.
You may be encouraged into waves at first by our surf guides, this helps you to get the feel of being on the wave. You'll slowly start to paddle into waves independently, read the waves and correctly position yourself. Step by step, you'll move on to surfing green waves.
By day 2 or 3, you'll likely be surfing on real ocean waves. Before this, we'll tell you about rip currents, channels, surf etiquette and how it is different from surfing the beach break.
We will take pictures on your first or second day, after surf, we have a photo review session where we will give you feedback on how to improve.
We consider intermediates as people who can take green waves on their own, are comfortable in the water and know how to handle themselves in the line up.
You'll head straight to the reef breaks from day one! Don't be intimidated by the term reef breaks, Lombok waves tend to be mellow and we always try to go on a higher tide so it's much easier for you to get that perfect wave.
In the line up, stay close to our guides as they will take you to the right spots. They can be shy in the beginning, so don't be afraid to ask them questions or feedback.
We will take pictures/drone footage of your sessions, then analyze your surfing during a review sessions. We'll give you actionable feedback on how to improve your technique.
You're welcome to bring your board. If not, we have selection of surfboards that would surely suit you.
