I did the Bali Intro 12 days and it was an amazing experience. Special thanks to our group leaders Michelle and Hendri (9 days). You guys did an amazing job and just spread out good vibes for the group so it is making this trip much better. Thank you for that. So many nice activities and very well organised.
Bali Intro 12 DayBeautiful Bali scenery combined with a private photographer made this 3 day trip truly special. Kelingking and the coastal views around Nusa Penida were absolutely breathtaking, and having someone who knew the best photo locations made a huge difference. The photographer was patient, creative, and great at capturing natural moments rather than just standard tourist pictures. Lempuyang Temple and Tirta Gangga were equally impressive, while Tukad Cepung Waterfall offered a completely different atmosphere. The private format made everything comfortable because we could enjoy each location without feeling rushed. Our guide and driver were also very helpful throughout the journey. For anyone who wants amazing Bali memories and beautiful photographs, this is an excellent tour.

What our customers ask about Surfing Tours & Trips
What are the best destinations for surfing tours?
For great surfing, head to Byron Bay and Spot X Surf Camp in Australia, where friendly local instructors will help you catch waves at iconic breaks. In Bali, both Kuta Beach and Canggu work well for learning - the water stays a pleasant 80°F (27°C) year-round. If you're looking for reliable waves, check out Taghazout in Morocco. The conditions there are good pretty much any time you visit. As one TourRadar traveler says: "The surf lessons were really well organized and the instructors were excellent at getting everyone standing up on their first day."
When is the best time to go on a surfing tour?
The best time really depends on where you want to go. If you're heading to Byron Bay in Australia, book between September and April when the water's warmer and waves are consistent. For Morocco's Taghazout, winter (October-March) brings bigger waves of 6-8 feet (2-2.5 meters). In Bali, plan your trip during dry season (April-October) when you'll find steady waves around 3-5 feet (1-1.5 meters). One TourRadar traveler shared: "We went in April and had perfect weather and waves every day at Byron Bay - not too crowded and ideal for learning."
How long are typical surfing lessons on these tours?
Most lessons run for 2-3 hours, including time for beach instruction before you hit the water. At Spot X Surf Camp in Australia, you'll spend about 90 minutes in the water during morning lessons. In Taghazout, they split up the sessions between morning and afternoon - this way you can rest between sessions and catch the best waves of the day. One TourRadar traveler mentioned: "Having both morning and afternoon sessions really helped cement the techniques we learned, with enough rest time between to recharge."
What accommodation can I expect on a surfing tour?
You'll stay close to the surf spots, which makes getting to your lessons easy. In Byron Bay, you might be at the Wake Up! Hostel or similar places right by the beach. If you're surfing in Bali, expect to stay at laid-back surf camps or beachfront spots like the Kuta Paradiso Hotel. In Morocco's Taghazout, you'll likely stay in a traditional riad where you can walk to the surf breaks in just a few minutes.
