My surf experience in Bali
By Jenny Lohiniva
One of the reasons why I really wanted to come to Bali was my life long dream of wanting to try surfing. I somehow had a really strong feeling that I would really love it since it combines so many elements that I enjoy. Pretty soon after I had arrived in Bali, I organized myself a lesson at the Serangan beach. Because it was something new to me, I was a bit nervous, but at the same time could not wait to get into the water.
After the first lesson, I was immediately hooked. I was able to ride small waves, and if I would have not been so exhausted I think I would stayed in the water the whole day. From then on, I have been surfing whenever possible, and enjoying and improving more and more. It is just so much fun for me – being in the water the whole day while the sun is shining, and getting excited over every single ride. I could not imagine a better way to spend a day off.
If you have always wanted to try out surfing, or you surf already, I can highly recommend coming to Bali. The great thing about Bali is that there are so many different kind of locations for all levels, so you will always find a place where you can surf and have a great time. Varying from Serangan and Dreamland that are more suitable for beginners, to locations such as Uluwatu for more advanced surfers. There is no doubt that you will find breathtaking locations with great waves.
Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat also shares the love for surfing, and therefore has created options for you to plan your ideal surf trip, no matter what level you are. Floating Leaf has special packages (The Bali Surf Package, The Deluxe Surf Package, The Stoke Package, and The Bali Surf Clinic) but you are able to modify your package or build one on your own. If you choose to go with a particular package, you can still add or delete locations or add cultural experiences within all the packages.
So come and experience the greatness of surfing while getting to know the beautiful island of Bali. You will have a great time!
