Sofi is the best surfteacher in Bali! He is funny, but can be serious when needed. I was kind of scared of the water first, but Sofi let me feel safe. He has a lot of knowledge and i could ride small waves in the first lesson I did with him. Definitely try a surf lesson with Sofi, you will love it!

I’ve been surfing with Sofi while traveling in Bali and I can really recommend. It was my first lesson and he explained everything well in the beginning. Also in the water I felt very comfortable and had a lot of fun. So if you are in Canggu and you wanna try surfing you should definitely check out Surfing with Sofi 🤙🏽
We had a lot of fun surfing with Sofi! After some theory we were ready to go in the water. I recieved good tips during the session. We also had one on one guidance which made it a very good, safe and FUN session. Thanks!
I have surfed with Sofi lots of times before and he is one of the best instructors in Bali. He is so patient and caring and you will improve so much in a short time. I really recommend him. Thank you Sofi for everything over the past years!
Great experience to surf woth Sofi, he's trustworthy, kind and patient and I felt very safe in the water. Learned a lot from him. Thanks Sofi, see you again in Bali 🙏🏼
I had an amazing surf lesson and can highly recommend this surf school! The instructor was very friendly, patient and explained everything clearly, which made me feel comfortable and safe in the water. We started with the basics on the beach (paddling, standing up and safety) and then went straight into the ocean. The whole experience was well organized, professional and fun. After the lesson, I felt much more confident on the board and even managed to stand up on several waves 🏄♀️ One of the best experiences I had in Canggu — I would definitely book again!
I had the most incredible surf trip thanks to Sofi! As a beginner, I was a bit nervous, but Sofi was so patient and encouraging. They have a way of making you feel safe while pushing you to catch your first waves. I actually managed to stand up on my first day! If you’re looking for a trip that’s fun, professional, and genuinely rewarding, book with Sofi. Can't wait to come back!
My cousin and I have surfed with Sofi before, and every session has been amazing. The vibe is always relaxed, friendly, and supportive, which makes a huge difference in the water. He explains things clearly and in detail, helping us feel more confident and improve. You can really feel his passion for surfing and his good heart. Totally worth it — highly recommended.

Sofi is a great surfteacher! Super professional and kind! I felt safe in the water and he teached me more then just the basics but also how to choose the direction to go on the wave.
Very good experience, surf lessons of Sofi are very good. I was a beginner and after 2 hours a was already surfing. I recommend to take a few lessons to learn faster, more fun!
I have had so many surf lessons with Sofi, and I highly recommend him! He’s an amazing instructor, professional, patient, and really kind. Every lesson, I felt safe and confident on the water, which made learning so much easier and fun. He explains everything clearly, gives helpful tips, and always makes sure you feel comfortable, no matter your level. He’s always smiling, encouraging, and makes every lesson enjoyable. I’ve learned so much with him, not just about surfing techniques, but also about reading the waves and improving my confidence. Whether you’re a total beginner or have some experience, you’ll feel supported and inspired. I 100% recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their surfing and have fun on the water :)
