Highly recommend!

Rachel_T, Apr 2024

Had an amazing time learning to surf during my two lessons. Photos of my lesson were sent to me afterwards so I could keep those memories. My instructor taught me how to catch my own waves while also assisting me in catching a few. The owner of the company even gave me specific advice on how I could improve based on the photos that were taken! If you have the chance and want to give surfing a fair shot, I would even suggest to sign up for multiple days in a row.

Spike up the surf with Up2U

Trevor_U, Apr 2024

Friendly atmosphere, awesome one on one experience of surf and on time 😊. The weather was perfect with beautiful people and service

Great experience

Kuo_X, Dec 2023

Good facilities and nice instructor. Locker, shower, shirt etc was all available. I was not great at surfing but still nice experience!

Great lesson!

Georgia_F, May 2023

Great experience and very reasonably priced! We had one instructor (Chip) between 3 of us initially. We were taught the basics of surfing and how to use the board on the beach before entering the water but this didn't take up much time. Another instructor came to help me 1-1 when in the sea which was great. Both were very helpful, encouraging and friendly! We chose to purchase our photos for a very reasonable price. They hadn't been sent by the following day but I contacted the surf school and they sent them all across immediately.

Amazing!!

Tenaya_S, Mar 2023

This was our second lesson with this business. We absolutely loved the first session so decided to go again! This lesson we learnt a bit more and we’re way more confident! Recommend going more than once!

In Bali, go to UP 2 U!

Emily_F, Feb 2023

Wow! What a fabulous experience! Our coaches were amazing and the whole staff was absolutely wonderful. Everyone there (I want to say there were about 12 of us total), had wonderful things to say about their coaches too! Would absolutely use this surf school while in Bali! They were amazing!!!!

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Hello Emily_F, You are a legend we absolutely loved you surfing at UP2U you have a great positive attitude and we hope that you can come back an rip up the waves again. Keep surfing, Paul and the crew from UP2U Surf School Bali

Lots of fun! Excellent for beginners!

Kirsten_S, Oct 2022

Gede was a fantastic instructor! I was very lucky as there was just me and one other person in the group for the afternoon lesson so it was almost like a 1:1 session. Gede was very patient and gave us both feedback everytime we surfed. He stated in the water with us the entire time and I felt very safe and comfortable knowing that he was around. I was slightly disappointed to hear that no photos or videos had been taken during the lesson. Gede said that it was only the morning session. However, I was asked for my email address when I booked so that videos and photos could be shared and I’ve never surfed before so some evidence, good or bad, would’ve been nice to have. Other than that though, I can’t fault Gede at all. It was a brilliant afternoon!

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Hello Paul, We thank you for surfing at UP2U and we are stoked that you had a excellent experience at UP2U. In regards to surf pictures we did ask you supply emails for the surf pics but on the day you surfed our photographer was in hospital helping his wife have their baby it was sudden and out of our control. We have taken note and have fixed it for future guests. But we are happy that you had a excellent surf. Keep surfing, Paul and the Crew From UP2U Surf School Bali

Absolute no brainer.

James_R, Sep 2022

I needed a refresher lesson having not surfed in about 6 years and came across these guys. To answer the main question, yes I think you should absolutely go ahead and book with them. Paul was helpful with sorting things out and my lesson with Lubis was great. He was extremely positive, patient and encouraging - everything you want in an instructor. He's called "the master guru" by his colleagues for a reason. Unbeatable value in the price and experience, and I would 100% recommend to everyone whilst in Bali.

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hello James, You where a natural surfer we really enjoyed having you surf with us and we hope that you keep surfing I think it maybe your new hobby. Come back anytime you are always welcome back Keep surfing, Paul and the crew from UP2U Surf School Bali

Fun experience

Michaela_R, Sep 2022

The surfing lesson was fun, the waves were pretty big on the day of our lesson but we still felt safe and managed to learn how to stand up. Definitely recommend this excursion. We were helped by Darwin and Robert and received good tips from Paul too.

Response from Host, Sep 2022

Hi Micahel, We all thank you for your excellent review are we are so stoked you had a good surf at UP2U. The waves where big but it was still ok to surf but if there is any danger present for our guests we would cancel the lesson. Safety is number 1 at UP2U. We hope you can come back soon you are always welcome back. Regards, Paul and the crew from UP2U Surf School Bali

The surf coach "Pang" was...

zhisheng94, Apr 2022

The surf coach "Pang" was quite thorough with the briefing at the start, but he was a little too intense and was quite impatient while he was teaching in the waters. The photographer (can't remember his name), however, was very friendly and he was quite encouraging as well. Lastly, "Paul" wrote a long message stating that in order for us to get the photos (which was promised in the package), we had to write a multi paragraph 5 star review. He deleted the message after 5 minutes of sending, and still sent us the photo nevertheless. Throughout the entire time the message was left unread. Regardless, the coach still managed to teach us to stand on the board and catch some waves!

Response from Host, May 2022

Hello Zhi, We apologize for the not so excellent experience. Pangs teaching even may come across strong but he is very detailed and professional surf coach and is considered one of the best surf coaches in Kuta! He is a very caring and very experienced instructor with many years of instruction. I'm sure what you experienced was just a bit of a breakdown in communication. We give our guests the surf pics for free but we do request they write a review this is optional we don't demand guests write a review you have misread the messages meaning. We are stoked you did stand up and hope you can surf with UP2U in the future you are always welcome back. Regards, Paul

Literally just book it

CiCi_W, Apr 2022

This was such a fun and memorable experience! It was my first time attempting to surf and I had such a good time. The coach I had was patient, attentive, and super knowledgeable. Every time I would mess up he could tell me how to fix it, and he just kept encouraging me to get back on the board! The pictures they got of me were really nice too. If I’d had another day in Kuta, I would have signed up again. Highly recommend this lesson :).

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Hello CiCi_W, It was a pleasure meeting you and tank you for choosing to surf at UP2U we all had fun and we hope that you will return again soon for another surf. Keep surfing, Paul and the crew from UP2U Surf School Bali

Coaches were great and...

Marcus_K, Apr 2022

Coaches were great and very professional. It was our first time surfing but felt like we were in ver good hands. Instructions were very clear and easy to understand. They kept us safe the entire session.

Amazing surf lesson

Andy_O, Oct 2020

A great surfing lesson for us. We were both complete beginners so having an instructor for just the two of us was very beneficial. We were standing up within the first 20 mins of the lesson and then developed at a comfortable pace making it an amazing experience. We are definitely going back for more lessons, absolutely loved it, thank you and see you soon!

Super start zum Surfen lernen

Lotta_B, May 2022

Es war ein super Erlebnis gewesen, sodass ich am Ende auf dem Surfbrett stehen konnte. Gerne wieder und für Anfänger zum reinkommen geeignet.

The Best school
