Pura Vida Adventures is excited to offer two weeklong surf camps in Bali in 2023! For many people, surfing the waves of Bali would be a dream come true. With PVA’s May 27-June 3 co-ed surf camp and the June 10-17 women’s only surf retreat, you can make that bucket list wish a reality!

You will travel to not just one but two breathtaking locations well known for their epic surf breaks. The first stop is Como Hotel in Canggu on mainland Bali. Then we head to the Indiana Kenanga Hotel on the neighboring island paradise of Nusa Lembongan. In addition to surfing our hearts out in warm water waves, we will snorkel with manta rays and turtles over a kaleidoscopic coral reef. Dining on gourmet cuisine and enjoying tropical sunsets at beachfront bars are a daily luxury.

In addition to surfing, there will be excursions to dramatic Hindu temples and the beloved sanctuary Ubed Monkey Forest. You’ll love exploring the colorful history and culture of Bali. Bali is the mecca for gorgeous handcrafted textiles, silver jewelry, and almost anything else you can imagine, so save some time (and luggage space) for shopping on this vacation!

BALI SURF LOCATIONS

CANGGU || SURF CAPITAL OF INDONESIA ON MAINLAND BALI

Volcanic black sand beaches, Hindu temples, vibrant cafes, hip bars and friendly waves make Canggu the perfect base for surfers to explore magical Bali. We’ll be staying at a premier location, the Como Hotel. This resort is directly on the beach overlooking the famous longboard wave Old Man’s. Between our salty sessions, you can watch the waves from the resort pool while listening to the cool sounds of acoustic musicians and sipping on a dragon fruit mojito. You can’t beat this incredible location! It has everything you could want: endless waves, nearby temples, Indonesian markets, and a resort oasis where you can relax and unwind from an adventurous day.

The hotel on Nusa Lembongan is breathtaking.

NUSA LEMBONGAN || AN UNTOUCHED INDONESIAN PARADISE

During our stay in Nusa Lembongan, we will make our home at the luxurious boutique hotel Indiana Kenanga. This truly is a luxury island-life location with a Michelin-star restaurant, full spa, and gorgeous pool. Life is simpler here, with the relaxed vibe of eat, sleep, surf, chill and repeat. The white sand beaches, stunning turquoise water and friendly locals are sure to quickly steal your heart. We’ll snorkel at the island’s pristine reef (home to an abundance of tropical fish, turtles and manta rays!) and SUP on crystal clear water at sunset. And each day, a charter boat will take us out to the island’s best breaks for unforgettable surf sessions.

BALI EXCURSIONS

TANAH LOT TEMPLE

Tanah Lot Temple is one of Bali’s most important landmarks. It is famous for its unique offshore setting and sunset backdrops. An ancient Hindu shrine perched atop a dramatic rocky islet, Tanah Lot Temple is simply among Bali’s not-to-be-missed icons.

5 stars! “Another unforgettable trip! This is my second trip with a Pura Vida Adventures and it was everything and more. You know you have had a great adventure when you are still reliving the trip and feeling the high a month after you are back. This time it was in Bali and everything was spot on. Due to all the research done by Pura Vida Adventures and Victoria Ross it was a trip of a life time. Add to that it was a great group of people and you have got a perfect time!” ~ Kathleen
