Surf Coaching

From First Wave to First Barrel

Expert coaching for every level. Our local instructors know these waves like the back of their hand.

Our Approach

Surf Coaching, Not Surf School

Surf coaching at Shipwrecked

We don't do cattle-call lessons with 20 people on the beach. At Shipwrecked, surf coaching is personal. Small groups, local instructors who grew up on these waves, and a progression-based approach that actually gets you better. Whether you've never touched a board or you're working on your cutbacks — we meet you where you are.

Common Questions

Good Questions

Do I need to bring my own board?

Nope. We provide premium boards for all levels. If you want to bring your own, that's cool too.

What if the waves are flat?

Lombok rarely goes flat, but if it does, we'll switch to surfskate coaching, video analysis, or take you to a different break.

Can I book surf coaching without staying at the camp?

Surf coaching is available as an add-on to accommodation bookings only.

How fit do I need to be?

If you can swim, you can surf. We'll tailor the session to your fitness level.
