Half-day & Full-day Options Max 4 Guests Per Guide Transport Included

Guided Bali surf trips are fully organised surf adventures led by experienced local guides who know Bali's coastline inside out. Unlike a standard surf lesson at a single beach, a guided surf trip takes you to the right break at the right time — factoring in swell direction, tide, wind, and your skill level. Our team checks the live Bali surf forecast before every session to ensure you are at the best possible spot.

Whether you are an intermediate surfer looking to push your progression or a more seasoned rider hunting uncrowded reef breaks, our guided surf trips in Bali are designed to maximise your time in the water. At 27 Surf Bali, our guides have been surfing this island for years and know exactly where to find quality waves — and when to find them empty.

Why Choose a Guided Surf Trip in Bali?

Bali has over 20 surf breaks spread across the island, from the mellow longboard waves of Kuta and Legian to the fast, hollow barrels of Uluwatu and Padang Padang. Navigating these spots without local knowledge means missed sessions, crowded peaks, and wrong-tide frustration. Our guided Bali surf trips take that guesswork away entirely — making them one of the most rewarding activities Bali has to offer for surfers of any level.

Local Knowledge, Every Session

Our guides surf these breaks daily — tides, crowds, swell windows, and hidden access tracks most visitors never find.

Right Wave, Right Level

We match you to a surf spot that fits your ability — not just the most famous name on the map.

All Logistics Handled

Transport, equipment, timing, and entry — we organise everything. You show up, paddle out, and surf.

Smaller Groups, More Waves

Max 4 guests per guide, so you spend more time riding waves and less time waiting in the lineup.

Safety in the Lineup

Reef breaks and bigger surf require someone who reads the ocean. Our guides are trained in water safety and first aid.

Session Photos on Request

Want shots of your rides? Just ask your guide — they know the best angles at every break.

Who Are Guided Bali Surf Trips For?

Our guided surf trips in Bali are designed for surfers who have already found their feet on a board. If you are a complete beginner, we recommend starting with one of our surf lesson programs first — most guests progress to a guided Bali surf trip after just one or two private sessions. A guided trip is the right next step if you:

  • Can paddle out and catch unbroken waves independently

  • Want to explore Bali's breaks beyond Kuta Beach

  • Are visiting Bali and want expert guidance on where and when to surf

  • Are a solo traveller looking for a surf partner and local guide

  • Are a group of friends who want a coordinated surf day without the planning headaches

  • Are an experienced surfer unfamiliar with Bali's reef breaks and currents

Surf Spots We Visit

Our guided surf trips in Bali cover a range of breaks suited to different skill levels and conditions. Each spot is assessed on the day based on swell, tide, and wind. Before entering the water at any break, your guide covers rip current awareness and lineup safety. Depending on conditions and your experience, sessions may include:

  • Kuta & Legian Beach

    Long, rolling waves over a sandy bottom. Consistent, forgiving, and accessible — the ideal first guided trip after completing your beginner lessons.

    Beginner-Inter

  • Canggu (Batu Bolong)

    Bali's most popular intermediate surf zone. Beach break peaks with both left and right-handers, best at mid to high tide. Vibrant atmosphere, great waves.

    Intermediate

  • Uluwatu

    One of the most iconic surf spots in the world. A long left-hander peeling off a cliff-base reef. Our guides time the cave entry perfectly and find you the right section.

    Intermediate–Advanced

  • Padang Padang

    A short, fast barrel best surfed on a bigger south swell. For confident surfers ready to step into more challenging territory. Requires correct timing — your guide knows when it's on.

    Advanced

     
     

     

     

  • Balangan

    A relaxed left-hander with a long shoulder — excellent for surfers who want length and flow over power. Less crowded than Uluwatu and a stunning location.

    Intermediate

  • Medewi, West Bali

    The longest wave in Bali. A classic point break where a single ride can take you 200 metres down the line. Perfect for nose-riding and drawn-out turns. Full-day trip from Kuta.

    All Levels
