Bali, Indonesia · 2h · IDR 400,000 per person for a 2-hour group lesson, 1 instructor for 3 students
🌊 We had an amazing first surfing experience! My sister and I are complete beginners, and everything was explained so clearly that we felt comfortable and safe from the very beginning. Our instructor RIKY 🤩 was fantastic — patient, supportive, and always encouraging us. He made the lesson so much fun and helped us catch our first waves! 😍 We also really appreciated all the little details: they provided drinking water, sunscreen, and after the lesson we had a detailed video analysis of each of our rides. Watching the videos together and getting personalized feedback was incredibly helpful and made us improve much faster.

Froggy Surf School is owned and run by a Balinese family together with its Froggy Warung, and its website places it on Balangan beach near Uluwatu, which the school calls famous for its left-hand waves. The group lesson is 1 instructor for 3 students for 2 hours at IDR 400,000 per person, with the board, a wetsuit, sunscreen, zinc and coffee, tea or water included. The school teaches 3 levels: beginners need no experience, intermediates should already have caught a wave, and the advanced class is for surfers with years in the water. It says the lessons are for all ages, runs morning and afternoon classes, accepts cash or card, and offers transport at extra cost without publishing the price.
Two points on the operator's page do not agree. On location, the website says Balangan beach, while Google Maps marks the school on Jl. Pantai Bingin in Pecatu, and the page title mentions Balangan and Bingin: confirm the meeting spot when you book. On video, the lesson descriptions offer video analysis as an option to buy after the session, while the level descriptions list «Video analysis after surf session / Free Video»: ask whether it is included for your class.
