Introduction to Seminyak Surf Camp

Surf Camp Seminyak is about 3 km north of the heaving tourist stronghold, Kuta at the quieter spot of Seminyak. A distance that means you can choose between a chill-out evening at the Surf Camp or a hot night clubbing in Kuta.

The six wonderful kilometres of Kuta Beach are only a few minutes' walk from the camp and this offers you the legendary beach breaks, such as HalfWay, Padma or KuDeTa. These breaks are ideal for beginners and are a great counter-piece to the daily Surfaris.

The Base Surf Camp is “The Green Room” Hotel in Seminyak, a quiet place on Bali's west coast, a few minutes’ walk from Kuta. Shopping, dining, clubbing possibilities are all within easy walking distance.

The four-bed and double rooms (all with their own bathroom and mini-terrace) are situated around a natural stone pool in the tropical garden. All rooms are up to western standards with hot water and ventilators. If you prefer things a bit more exclusive, you can book one of our deluxe theme rooms, such as “Life is a Beach”, “Little India” or the “Jungle Room”. These rooms are designed accordingly but with all modern comforts, such as air-conditioning, minibar, TV/DVD, fresh fruit every day, fresh flowers and an extended breakfast.

Our Chill House with its HiFi/DVD, beach bar, BBQ corner or hammocks is ideal for hanging out between surfing trips: relaxing, wining and dining, whatever you fancy... It goes without saying that there is a W-LAN Internet connection available for all our guests.

Food and Drink

To get you off to a good start in the morning, breakfast includes tea or coffee, jaffles and fruit salad, or nasi/mie goreng, toast with eggs and fruit juice

The cost of living on Bali is extremely low. A healthy and filling meal (fish including a side dish) will cost around 2 € !! There are lots of local cuisine restaurants near the hotel. The obligatory evening beer on the beach is likely to be the most expensive thing on the menu of healthy indo food. Fruit salads or nasi or mie goring can be had for 1 € even on the most remote beaches

In Seminyak there are plenty of restaurants which cater for the western palate. You'll find all sorts of food: German, Italian, Japanese, Greek, or Brazilian, plus of course the usual international fast food chains. “The Green Room Seminyak” hotel also offers organic food and drinks.

Surfing at Seminyak Surf Camp

Monday to Friday we organise up to twelve trips for all surf levels to various breaks all round Bali. What this means is that you can take part in at least two and a maximum of three guided session per day. At the weekend diversified Beach Day Trips are lined up for you or you can join one of the inland Culture and Sport Trips organised by the surf camp

The surf spots we head for are graded according to the various surf levels and selected depending on the tide, swell and wind conditions. Our guides are all trained in life-saving, they’re familiar with the island, drive safely and can give you competent briefing on the spot. Here they’ll point out the characteristics of reef surfing or any possible hazards. The guides always surf with you in the water, giving you tips and showing you tricks. Twice a week the sessions are filmed so that the analysis afterwards can help you identify the mistakes you’re making and sort these out. You can also take part in twice-weekly theory lessons on material maintenance, wave know-how and surf rules.

Our guided tours are always adapted to the given conditions, that means that depending on the swell the odd secret spot might come to light. On the other hand, you might, even as a beginner, be able to ride a reef break and then boast at the end of your holiday that you mastered Uluwatu .With our years of experience you’ll always be at the right spot at the right time!
