Padang Padang surf camp was a great experience for me and I can only recommend it to everyone. It was my first time on a surfboard and the instructors made me feel at ease at all times. The camp is in a side street and therefore centrally located, but also quiet at night. There is a pool, a kitchen, incredibly tasty breakfasts and always friendly service. I had rented the cheapest room and had no air conditioning in my room, which I got used to after 2-3 days. At best, you're not in your room much anyway, as the surf camp organises a group activity every evening of the week that you can take part in. Zara, one of the staff on site, made sure that we got to know different facets of the island, the most beautiful beaches at sunset, the best bars and cultural adventures such as the Kecak dance in the Uluwatu temple. Not only did we feel well looked after in terms of organisation, Zara made the camp shine with her engaging warmth. I'm already looking forward to the next time I can improve my surfing skills at Padang Padang Surf Camp.
