Bali is one of the great surfing Meccas of the world, offering perfect conditions to suit all levels. If you would like to experience the thrill of the waves and learn to surf, you can visit Ombak Legian Store & Surf Academy, accredited by the Australian Academy of Surfing Instructors (ASI), and located in front of our Garden Pool facing towards the beach.
Lessons take place in front of the hotel on Legian Beach, where the conditions are often perfect for beginners with mellow beach breaks. The Academy offers 2-hour beginner lessons, in which students will learn about water safety, surf awareness, surf etiquette, board handling, and environmental awareness, followed by the basic art of paddling, reading the waves, catching the waves, and riding the waves, students can expect to be standing up on their boards by the end of their first lesson.
The academy supplies safe soft surf boards for beginners, rash shirts and sunscreen; US $50,000 insurance cover is also available. The professional instructors – trained and accredited by ASI – are also qualified in lifesaving, resuscitation and first aid. The classes are small and personalised, with a choice of lessons to suit varied levels of interest and skill. Before entering the water, students can enjoy a cool, shady and tranquil outdoor setting for the theory session. Kids’ only classes are also available. |
