Kids Surf Lessons

Our kids lessons introduce children aged 6–12 to surfing the safest way we know: soft boards, gentle waves, and one instructor in the water for every two children. Sessions run for 1.5 hours — long enough to catch plenty of waves, short enough to finish before young arms tire out.

Safety first

Safety ratios are the heart of the lesson. With one in-water instructor per two kids, every child has hands-on support on every wave. Children stay on soft-top beginner boards in waist-deep whitewater until they are popping up confidently, and every session opens with a beach briefing that turns the safety basics into a game. Kids need basic swimming ability and to be comfortable in the water — beyond that, we take care of the rest.

What happens in a lesson

We keep it playful. The pop-up is taught through beach games before anyone gets wet, then instructors push the kids into small, gentle waves one at a time, cheering every ride. Most children are standing and riding whitewater to the beach well within their first session, and confident kids graduate to slightly larger waves as the lesson goes on.

Where we surf

Kids surf the same forgiving water as our adult beginners, around Playgrounds in the channel off Jungut Batu Beach — the most protected, slow-breaking waves on Nusa Lembongan. The water is warm all year, so there are no cold kids and no wetsuits needed.

What to bring

Swimwear, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen and a water bottle. We provide the soft board, leash and rash vest, and the boat transfer to the break is included. Parents are welcome on the beach the whole time.
