The waves weren't great on the day we went out but Chris was super helpful and had some great tips. It's cool that he's got a go pro so he records some of the waves and takes some pictures too.

I have been surfing for many years but decided to do SUP on our recent visit to Lembongan. Both Chris and staff were very helpful. After 5 min of getting the basics, it was straight into the surf. Great fun. My wife, not a surfer, went the next day and had a couple of hours lesson and loved it. This... More

Christophe is a real nice guy, not only pushing you on the waves but giving you good advices and always very patient. Not like some other schools I would not mention.

Went with wife and three kids aged 10-15. Good instruction pre-surf. Playgrounds break is perfect for beginners, only about 5 feet deep on corals. Caught some great 3-5 foot waves.

Booked a 2 day lesson/transport to the spot with Christopher. He is very professional, outgoing and provides a tailored coaching session given the small number of students he takes for each lesson (3 in my case). He is also very friendly and contributes to creating a great atmosphere within the group.
