Yaya and Joe were great coaches. So encouraging, always had advice and pointers for how to improve. I was able to stand and catch multiple waves by the end of our lesson

Amazing service and even helped us find the pictures a photographer took of my brother whilst he was completing the class. Highly recommend!
Wow ! I never thought my first time surfing would be so enjoyable. The instructor was amazing and extremely kind. The location was beautiful and the 4pm slot with the sunset made for incredible views. Thanks to his guidance and amazing diagrams drawn In the sand I was able to catch the very first wave. On top of this the staff went above and beyond to help me track down some photos I couldn’t pay for as I didn’t have the cash. If you’re looking for somewhere to learn surfing with comfy seats, great instructors and compassionate staff with brilliant communication then look no further. Would 100% come back. Ps. The value for money for 1-1 coaching plus a comfy spot for companions to watch from is insanely good Thank you everyone
This was the most incredible activity we did in Bali. With the most motivating and caring team ever. We were both so nervous and very sure we weren’t going to stand up at all, the guys were so patient and helpful and by the end we were properly surfing. It was INCREDIBLE
We had an amazing time learning to surf. Yahya was patient and knowledgeable, and showed us a lot before we went out into the ocean. They gave us good tips as we tried to stand out on the water. I would reccomend.
Yahya was a great instructor! He was very knowledgable about the water conditions and caring for our safety while ensuring we had fun and rode some waves!
Such nice and welcoming people her at Bagus. The lessons also, were great and fun! You are taken really good care of here. Big recommendation from here:)
I went with a buddy and we had a great time. Our instructor Joe was a great teacher, and he was an awesome part of the experience. For first timers, he gave great instruction and feedback, and helps you in the water to get a feel for it. Couldn’t recommend more for the price, and if I’m back in Bali I will be going back to this place. -US reviewer 🇺🇸
it was really nice experience and the surf teacher was really chilled and explained it well. also managed to surf a wave but need to train it more :)
First time surfing for both myself and my fiancé, it was such a good experience. Yahya & Jo were both so encouraging and patient and allowed us to go at a pace that was comfortable with us. And the most important thing for me as i’m not the most confident in open water, I felt very safe. Something I will be trying again in the future. I would highly recommend going to them if you’re a first time surfer.
Great experience! The instructor, Yahya, was amazing! He was extremely friendly, easy to communicate with, and took good care of us even hours after surfing as we were relaxing on the beach. Could not be more impressed by the team and highly recommend!!
100% recommended for beginners. They explain all the important things upfront. Then in the water, you have a 1-on-1 surfcoach with you. Lovely people and good experience.
Amazing experience thanks to our instructor. My sister and I have both only surfed a few times and we were both shocked by how well we did all thanks to our instructor. He did an incredible job coaching us as well as assisting us with catching waves, the hardest part. If you have never surfed, are a beginner, or more experienced learning to new skills I highly recommend!
Yahya and his team were absolutely fantastic, giving our whole novice family of 5 — from 6 years old to adults — an excellent and safe surf lesson. Everyone had such a great time that we asked to extend the session and keep the fun going for an extra half hour. Highly recommend for all ages and surfing abilities!
Amazing! Highly recommend. 1:1 support throughout lesson. The instructors are so patient and kind. Definitely one to book.
Waves were really high and it was our first time, so our instructor and us agreed it wasn’t safe enough. They promptly refunded our money.
Absolutely brilliant instructor, Yahya is SO good. Incredible talent and very good teacher. Had such a great time and felt super safe and Yahya was so attentive in the water, constantly giving tips on how to improve and get better. Would definitely come back again! Thank you so much
As a first timer to surfing, I could not have asked for a better introduction to this activity! The instructor, Yahya was super attentive throughout the lesson and it was interesting to learn the basics of surfing. I would definitely recommend anyone who is keen on learning to surf in Canggu to do it with Yahya :)
Great surf lesson and good vibes! The whole team was very welcoming and made us feel safe. I definitely recommend it. Thank you guys!
Yahya was a great surf instructor! My partner and I both managed to stand up which I’d been unsuccessful at for a while. Provided water/drinks, space to put our things and rash tops.
Fantastic experience. Went with a group of 7 most of us being beginners. The instructor was very well experienced and friendly.
Great teachers and good beginners spot! Yahya was so friendly and knowledgeable, I’d definitely be back again!
Had great experience as a first time surfer. One on one instructions. Started on the beach with the basics and headed out into the ocean. It was a lot of fun and loved that they took videos and pictures available for purchase.
Amazing people, so much fun !!! They take care of you like you’re their friends the instructors are so professional !! Highly recommended
It was exhausting but exhilarating! It was my first ever time surfing at the age of 53, but with the help of Jay I managed to stand up for two rides! It was the highlight of my trip.
Jey was absolutely patient and amazing in teaching us how to surf! Learnt how to stand in one session :D highly recommend him!!
Magic wave is definitely the place to go when you want to learn surfing in Canggu. Had a wonderful experience, they encourage you to get the best out of yourself, which is extremely important, when learning something like surfing. Already booked another session!
Yayah is a greatly knowledgable and welcoming coach. Being my first time surfing, there was a lot to explain before going into the water, which Yayah explained in simple, easy to understand terms. His expertise in the area are clear to see and meant I was able to achieve much more than I expected in my first time on the waves! Highly recommend booking your surfing practice with Yayah!
Amazing day and our instructor was amazing. It was a really nice and fun day, I even catched some waves which I didn’t think I would. Couldn’t be more satisfied, would definitely recommend!
Amazing instructor, really kind and understanding. I was a bit scared at first but he made me feel really safe. And also it was a lot of fun
Amazing instructors. Very knowledgeable and nice. We went in a group of 3 and got 2 instructors. We felt safe and had a good time. Truly recommend!
Yayhya was an amazing teacher with a great attitude. Upon arriving he explained to us that the weather conditions were not the most optimal and even offered us a refund in the name of safety! His attention to detail and light hearted humour is sure to be the key to spice up your next trip :)
The instructor doesnt allowed breaks and stop once you need one even if you paid for 2 hours. The waves were big and strong for a beginner.
Fantastic experience! First things first, it is super easy to find the place. We got all details a day before via Whatsapp and several updates regarding the weather. As the conditions in the morning have been a bit sketchy the operator decided to move us to a later time. As it was our fist surfing experience we appreciated the concerns and were very happy with the decision. Before you splash into the waves you get some dry drills ashore. This takes about 30 minutes and it is not only lots of fun and laughing but very crucial when it gets wet later on. Only when Dady (our amazing instructor) was absolute sure we can handle the drills it, we got down to the waves. With these proper training we have been able to enjoy it so much and managed to surf the first waves already. We will definitely come back for some additional lessons.
Arie is an amazing instructor! He is patient and provides step by step guidance. Very friendly and helpful too :) Would love to come back again next time!
Great surfing experience with Jey and the team. Best instructors and a fabulous place to learn to surf
Instructor was very experienced. He was able to explain things well and give me tips to improve my form. He also provided water, storage, shower, rash card, sunscreen, and for an additional cost, high quality photos/ videos!
I really appreciate the care and knowledge that these guys took to make my experience safe and enjoyable. They were very professional and friendly. Very responsive and respectful. Thank you for everything. I really reccommend these guys to teach you surfing.
We did our surf lesson today with Yahya at magic wave and had a BLAST!! We are both beginner level surfers and Yahya made it so easy to catch every wave! if you are planning to surf while in Canggu you have to book with Yahya, he is an excellent teacher and we can’t say enough about this experience!!
Wouldn’t recommend anyone else, especially for your first time - Yahya is a legend. Such a huge help!! He even picked us up. Can’t thank him enough🤝🏼
Yahya and his colleagues were amazing. We booked the night before and they treated us so well. Everybody was so welcoming on arrival and offered seats and water. We went through safety as well as being offered rash vests and strong sun cream for the face. I would recommend doing this if you can swim as the water is deep and the waves are rough but we all felt super safe😊 My arms were killing - it is a good workout- and they were so supportive. Honestly I would recommend this to anyone!!! 🏄 the pictures were shown to us and we bought them all for £50
Was an amazing experience! Yahya is a superb instructor, very clear in his instructions, very encouraging and supporting. I had a lot of fun doing the session thanks to his laid back attitude and constant positivity. He also pushed me to keep trying more as I got better. I couldn’t have asked from more from my first surfing lesson ever, and will definitely be back. Thanks Yahya!
We had a great time during our surfing lesson with yahya, he is so friendly and I would highly recommend this surf school!
Loved this experience!! Super surfing coach, great waves, and I was very thankful to have the option of hiring a photographer/videographer. I'll treasure those photos/videos of myself and kids always. I highly recommend this activity and provider.
Had an amazing experience learning how to surf here. They provide incredibly helpful tips and get you going on your way to surfing waves quickly. Yahya and his team are legends. Would highly recommend!
Yesterday I took my first surfing lesson and it was an incredible experience. I didn't expect to do so well, but I managed to catch about five waves. It was a lot of fun and I laughed a lot. It was a great day and I would definitely do it again!
Awesome time. You were able to get up super easily and really enjoyed the time on the waves. Yahya was very knowledgeable!
Great place to do surf lessons! Had a great time with Yahya, he was super helpful. Would definitely recommend
Great surf experience. Good instructor and fast to learn the basic skills for beginners. I could stand up for the second wave.
Great coaching with patience and in to the point instructions. You feel that safety is the first priority so you can be chill and have more fun.
