Bali is a great destination for beginner surfers, with a variety of breaks that offer gentle waves suitable for learning. We used to run Learn to Surf retreats in Bali with our sister brand, Ocean Soul Retreat - and these are some of our favourite beginner surf locations in Bali:
1. Kuta Beach.
Kuta Beach is one of the most popular surf spots in Bali, and for good reason. It offers a long sandy beach and gentle waves that are perfect for beginners. The best time to surf here is during the dry season, from April to October.
2. Legian Beach.
Legian Beach is located just north of Kuta and offers similar conditions, with gentle waves that are ideal for beginners. It's a popular spot for surf schools, so you'll find plenty of instructors and rental shops.
3. Seminyak Beach.
Seminyak Beach is another popular surf spot that's perfect for beginners. The waves here are gentle and forgiving, and the beach is less crowded than Kuta or Legian.
4. Batu Bolong Beach.
Batu Bolong Beach is located in Canggu and offers a more relaxed vibe than the busier spots in the south. The waves here are gentle and perfect for beginners, and there are plenty of surf schools and rental shops in the area.
These are just a few of our favourite beginner surf locations in Bali. Remember to always surf with caution and respect the locals and the environment. Have fun and enjoy the waves!

Our women's surf suit, one piece swimsuits and long sleeve swimsuit ranges are available in our shop in Berawa.
If you’ve ever slipped into our original Sulawesi Midnight one piece, you know it’s more than just a swimsuit—it’s a statement. It’s strength and elegance wrapped in Italian recycled fabric, stitched into a sleek, sculpted silhouette that stays on in surf, supports in the sea, and flatters on every shore.
If your happy place is somewhere between the reef and the shoreline, you know your skin takes a beating—sun, salt, wind, and sand can dehydrate and damage if you’re not prepared. Here’s how to care for your skin while living your best ocean-loving life.
Unlike bikinis that often need adjusting, one pieces offer security and support. Whether you're diving, stretching, or walking the beach, everything stays in place.
