Curly and crew were awesome! They were informative and encouraging. My husband can’t swim and they stayed with him the whole time and he was able to stand up!

Itinerary
If you’re ready to learn, the waves of Canggu Beach are a great place to get your feet wet. The lesson will be given by Curly. a local surf professional with over 20 years of surf experience and over 10 years of coaching experience. Our passion is surfing, and my office is the beach. Begin by practicing the basics on the beach before hitting the water for your surf lesson! I will guide you through the waves and teach you all the necessary skills. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced surfer and you want to catch better/bigger waves – I got you covered! The sun in Bali can be really strong. To protect your skin, I can give you a stylish surfshirt and some sun cream for your face. I am excited about teaching and dedicated to you to provide the best surf experience ever! Everyday the waves and the tide are different. The day before I check out the forecast, and after that I decide, what time is the best time for you to surf and we will together agree on a convenient time. You will have a lot of fun. Just contact me directly via WhatsApp for your private surf lesson.

I had the best day out in the waves!!! Curly was an amazing teacher and a great guy! I couldn’t recommend curly surf school enough 🙌
The instructor is very kind and easy going. He gives you clear and good advice towards your personal goals for the lesson. Would recommend to everyone!
Curly is a legend. Brought me to some of the best surf spots in Bali and always with a huge smile. Very skilled and knowledgeble surfer from which I learnt a lot. Now he is more than just my coach as we also become good friends ❤️ 10/10, highly reccomend
Had the best time with Carly - our first class could not be better. He explained really well and he always tried to help. Thanks!!
By far the best thing you can do in Canggu. Curly is an amazing teacher and I had so much fun. He was patient, encouraging, informative and friendly. I enjoyed my lesson so much that I booked again the next day. Before this, I had never surfed and wasn’t sure if I would even like it. If I had more time, I would have happily booked a third lesson. Thank you so much Curly, I’m excited to visit again and learn more about surfing and listen to your songs.
I had my very first surf lesson ever with Curly! First thing, don't try to pick your own time - it's best to keep flexible and listen to what Curly suggests as the best time based on your surfing level. It'll make a huge difference! I didn't expect to be a pro after my first lesson but I was able to stand up on my first wave (and the subsequent waves after that). Curly was very encouraging and I would not hesitate to recommend him!
This is my first and best surf lesson in my life, luckily to have the best and funniest surf instructor Curly to teach me how to surf like a pro! It is very easy to surf and I have so much fun, the instructions is clear and easy to remember, I can even stand up on the surfboard in my very first time, Highly recommend the funniest private instructor Curly. I will see you again when I backed! 😊 Surfing is fun!! 🏄♀️
We take lesson with Curly in Canggu. It was an amazing experience. Curly give us good advice, help us, and support us in the water every time. He is also very fun and kind so you can be confident he will do his best to help you to improve your skills. My friend and I had so much fun in the water with Curly and his friends. Initially we went for 1 lesson but finally take two (epic session in the sunset for the last one one Canggu beach) I have tried lesson before in France, but Curly permit me to improve my skills much faster. He’s always watching, laughing & give good energy. It was a pleasure. For sure if we came back we will surf with him again !
Coaching is not an easy task but Curly is a pro at it. While he is always smiling, joking and having a good time he is also very knowledgeable and is the perfect coach for any skill level. As someone who wanted to be pushed but also stay within my capabilities, I felt Curly did an amazing job of satisfying all my needs while also teaching me lasting lessons. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their surfing and to have a fun time while doing it!
My lesson with Curly was soo good! He helped me so much finding my common mistakes and how I can fix them. I felt safe with him all the time in the ocean and he picked out only the best waves for me :) I never experienced such a chill but also professional atmosphere with a teacher, and he really helps you pushing yourself to achieve your goals. I would really recommend you to book your next private surf lesson with Curly, I promise you you will have so much fun learning the best sport ever!
Curly is an excellent, amazing, knowledgeable , experience surfing instructor!! He is patient, considerate, understanding, with great sense of humor who gives undivided attention to me at all times. Curly explained detailed instructions for a beginner like me. He watched & paid close attention to my return demonstration after his explaination, ensuring that I understand & ask any questions. The 7am surf was beautiful with just the right waves for beginners like me, love it!! His colleague took lovely photos on my surf, thank you! Water was provided as I left my water bottle at hotel, terimakasih. Curly & his team are wonderful people, important of all they are accommodating & friendly. Thank you Curly for sharing your early morning breakfast of satay with me! I had a fun lovely time, the feeling to stay on the board is the most wonderful feeling ever experienced at my age in my 50s’. I’m glad I swim regularly as part of my routine exercise in spite of my busy work schedule. That makes a difference to keep up with Curly during the two hours session. There is no doubt that I will come back again to Curly for more surf as Curly is the best surfing instructor I’ve ever met.
Curly is such a legend!! Don’t think twice and take that surf lesson with him. You will feel safe, adventurous and just have the best time of your life. I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to every beautiful soul out there who loves good jokes and a magic atmosphere. I feel so much appreciation for the great time. He is really the best teacher you can wish for, he knows the waves and the ocean is his second home.
The surfing with curly was amazing. He supported me always to find the best waves and makes me feel safe in the water. He helped me so much technically and mentally. He is such a great person, always kind patient and makes you smile. I can highly recommend him to surf with him. It’s so much fun!
I wanted to try out surfing in Canggu after hearing good reviews about the place from others surfers. However Inwas not confident in my surf skills having only done surfing a couple of times before. Having classes with Curly has been a good opportunity to polish my basics before wading out to the waves. Curly makes you feel like a pro as he constantly helps you catch the most perfect wave at the best timing so you hardly wipe-out! Recommend Curly to anyone who wants to build a strong surfing foundation and confidence in water. Will surely come back again!
I had the intention of getting comfortable in the water with a surfboard. Having zero experience beforehand, Curly really made this a fun experience and made sure to push me mentally while making sure I was enjoying it. Now I definitely feel comfortable enough to go by myself. 10/10
Me and my friends got Curly recommended by a friend and we were sold from the first time! Both Curly and the other teachers are professionals and they know everything about the waves and swells etc. you feel very safe with them and you’re ALWAYS having so much fun! We loved his place so much we came back! Curly is very passionate and has so much joy for what he’s doing. He made our last week in Bali to the best! His energy and positivity is really infectious and he’s of course also a great teacher! You have to choose Curly! Will see you again <33
If you’re ever thinking about doing a surf lesson around Bali - look no further! I can reassure you that Curly is the best surfing instructor you’ll find, and will apart from sharing his knowledge give you the best experience in the water with his great personality and a lot of laughter. Go with friends, family or solo and no matter what you’ll have the funniest time learning to catch those waves while also feeling safe and comfortable🌊 🏄🏼♀️ I have done several lessons and can’t wait to be back for more😊
The surf lesson with Curly was just amazing. It was the first one for my girlfriend and me and we felt comfortable and safe straight away. Curly explained the theory at the beginning and then we were off into the water. We had a lot of fun and are happy to have met such a great person. Much appreciated.
Great experience surfing with Curly! Very knowledgeable about the waves and how to improve. I highly recommend these lessons to anyone.
Curly was an amazing and very funny teacher. He explained everything very good in the beginning and helped us in the water, if we had a problem. I will come to his surfing school again! Das
Surf lessons with Curly were great. I tried surfing for the first time and I'm so glad I found Curly. It was super cool. Curly suggested the right times for me to start catching waves. He was a very good mentor and his positive vibs guaranteed a great atmosphere during the lessons. All equipment, clothing, water and even natural sunscreen, all these things were provided. If you end up in Canggu, look for Curly. Thanks again for a wonderful new experience. I will come back for sure :)
The best surfing teacher ever. I could see you my progress daily. Patient and supportive. Great feedback and adjusting instructions so I can be better. I'll be back for more lessons with Curly. Highly recommend
The best surf teacher, the lesson was so fun and I really felt like I made progress. If I had time I would stay in canggu and surf at this place forever.
Thank you Curly for your patience and secret techniques for beginner surfing! It was the first time for me so far out in the sea and I was a bit nervous, but Curly assured me very well and I knew I was in safe hands during the lesson. We had a short intro lesson before hitting the waves, and I managed to ride a couple of waves smoothly after much times plunging into the water, yay☺️☺️ it was a great experience, even though it was tiring but it’s worth the push. Best decision I made to book a private lesson with Curly! Curly also has a photographer to help you take pictures while you’re far out, I had a really great time.
If you are looking to improve your surf level and also wanna feels safe and have heaps of fun while doing it, curly is your surf coach of choice!!! I had 5 lessons with him and at the end I was riding left handers, right handers and even some bigger more powerful ones 🌊🏄🏼♀️ even without the laundry 😂 He knows the lineup so perfectly that you have no problems to paddle out in the channel and he can read the perfect wave for you which suits your level that you don’t waste your time on too big or too small! His encouragement and happiness are from a different planet 😊 gives you so much power and makes surfing even more fun. His tips definitely helped me to understand my mistakes more and how to solve them! I have improved so much! Thanks curly 🤙🏻🤩 I’m definitely coming back! For all surf lovers they have the feeling, they would need a bit of a hand to catch a couple more waves than usual, this the right spot! 😉
Greatest surf lesson ever!!! If your looking for a fun, detailed, safe place to start surfing, look no further. Curly and his crew were just as you would expect a surf lesson to be. Good vibes, helpful, and always keeping your safety first. No matter what level your at, I with out a doubt 100% RECOMMEND!!!
CARING, ENCOURAGING, AND TALENTED! We didn't plan to surf with Curly but we are so happy that we met him on Batu Bolong Beach. His English is perfect, making communication very easy so that you know you are safe and you'll be laughing and smiling throughout your lessons, leaving the beach on such a high and buzzing with enjoyment. We had 3 lessons with Curly and he is fantastic at explaining and progressing our abilities. We even changed our backpacking itinerary to come see him again to surf. He is an incredible surfer and maybe even better teacher. His knowledge of the waves is immense which ensured we were safe at all times and always looked after us if there was any difficulty with bigger waves or getting tired. We really believe Curly is the best teacher on the beach, or maybe ever!! If you are looking for a teacher to have fun with, learn quickly, and that will put you, as the student, first over making money, Curly is the person for you. Thank you for teaching us and being our friend in Canggu, we hope to visit more in the future!
Curly made me feel very safe & his constant encouragement and cheers made the experience super fun!!
Learning to surf was an absolute pleasure with Curly. Having only surfed a handful of times before Curly was super attentive and was so happy so share his wealth of knowledge with me during the 2 lessons we did together. Curlys passion for surfing really reflects in how he treated me as a student and was genuinely keen to ensure I got exactly what I wanted from each lesson and what to insure I do in future to keep progressing with surfing. The best instructor ever!🏄♀️🤙🏼
The best surf of my life! And yup, it was the first one ;). Highly recommend, Curly even pushed and pulled me around once my arms stopped working. I felt super safe and it was a lotta fun!

Took up a beginner's surf lesson and i can say Curly is a top-notch surf instructor. Fun, professional and passionate. Highly recommended. 5 stars for Curly!
Curly is an amazing surf instructor, he is very patient, especially with me as a brand new surfer. He has really good vibes and is always making everyone laugh and smile around him. He’s the best ever! I will definitely take surf lessons from him again the next time I come to Bali!
Curly is a really great person and a fantastic surfer instructor! I’ve done 5 or 6 sessions with him and happy about each! He points out all important mistakes to improve your skills, caring about your request with a 100% dedication ! He also always finding the best waves for your level. The video review is a good add-on to the lesson - helps to improve and understand where to focus. What is the most important is that Curly is an amazing person! He is not only about surfing but about a happy life at its best!! Thank you and take care bro!!

Curly is a great surfing coach! He cares about progress and gives a valuable advice on how to get better every time. Thanks dude!
This was the best surf experience I’ve ever had (and I tried a few before). Curly is very ambitious. He takes all the time needed to explain and give very helpful feedback. I took many lessons with him and I improved really fast. It was always really fun to go surf with him. If you want to improve fast i can only recommend curly as an instructor!
Amazing surfing in Changgu! Thanks Curly and team for the valuable advice! Just a few classes and there are already cool results, we will continue to study more often
Amazing surf classes with the best and funniest teacher of the island. Thank you for your lessons, you made me ride it. I was scared before trying and with Curly everything became simple, his preparation made me feel comfortable and secure. GWe enjoyed the waves, singing and dancing on the board <3 Can’t wait for the nexts to come!
I’m happy about my surfing experience with Curly! Initially i wanted to have one session. Yet he showed a step by step progression and good result. I feel much more stable and confident on the board. Booked 2 more session with Curly, now i finally learn to surf on hardboard. Thanks Curly. Highly recommend Curly for your surfing instructor.
I loved taking surf lessons with Bol. He is the the most fun to be around and has endless knowledge of the waves and water. He will help you catch lots of waves and make sure you are safe in the water while helping you progress every time you are out. I would highly recommend taking a lessons with Bol!
Very professional and nice surf teacher! I recommend 100%. I think he was born with surfboard) Thank u and miss these guys!
