A young, youthful community who have a passion for the beach, fitness, surf boards, custom bikes, travel, friendly faces and good food.

As an expat in Indonesia, when ever I get a chance to get away for a surf, I do it. Having traveled across Indonesia for surfing, Base Guest House was the coolest surf house I have stayed in any where around the world. Canggu, where Base is located, was so laid back it felt like being back home in Cali. Plenty of great places to eat as well.. Comfortable beds, large rooms fast wifi and an awesome lady owner Erni. She was the best Indonesian chic I have met. Treats us like we are one of her children and ensures we were all enjoying our holiday. A great pool to chill out by after surfing with the great team at Base Surf School. We went with Cody one day and one of the other instructors the next for 2 day surf tours to Medewi and the Padang Padang. 2 other days we hired motorbikes through Erni's tour company and surfed around Canggu and Echo Beach. We all had an awesome time. Coming back in September and highly recommend any one who wants a great place to stay at great rates and with professional surf school (Base Surf) to stay or book lessons or tours through them. Thanks guys.
Beaches were good and breaks were on average 4 to 5 foot. The guys took us to were we wanted to go which involved up to 3 hours each way driving. Cody and the gang were brilliant and fun and knew their stuff. All ASI qualified. Base Surf hit the nail on the head with their team.
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Bali Ngurah Rai International Airport, also known as Denpasar International Airport and they can be booked in the booking steps.

Bali benefits from an almost endless supply of Southern Ocean groundswell meaning you are very rarely disappointed. SW swells wrap around the Bukit peninsula creating an array of world class lefts including the infamous Uluwatu which is Bali's most consistent wave. It is for the more experienced surfers and it tends to section when it's smaller which does spread the crowds out by allowing take offs almost anywhere down the line. The wave is broken down into three sections, Inside corner, Racetracks and Outside corner.
Further down the Bukit peninsula you can find Padang Padang which is home to Bali's most desired barrel and a more chilled out Bali surf holidays place to stay than the busier Kuta. It is a beautiful white sandy beach with reef out back for the more advanced, while in front it is perfect for beginners.
Bingin reef is a fun short tube wave, that can get crowded.
Dreamland beach is next in line and is one of the more user friendly beaches on the Bukit. It runs from deep water and can often be a shore break where you need to avoid creasing your board or hitting one of the many tourists playing on the inside.
Balangan is slightly more secluded with another perfect looking left point. It fires when the swell direction is big enough and coming from the right direction.
For beginners & intermediates there are many quality beach breaks around including the long beach break in the centre of Kuta and up to Legian. Further north west is Canggu which has a better mix of beginner, intermediate and advanced waves than the high performance waves on the Bukit Peninusla.
On the east side of the island you can find Nusa Dua, Sanur & further up Keramus. This side of Bali tends to work better in the Wet season (October to April).
Across from the Bali Peninsula is Grajagan or G-Land. A much more remote spot than the rest of Bali, surrounded by thick jungle and wild animals. It is often referred to as the best wave in the world. A long very consistent wave with a variety of different sections. but mostly for experienced surfers.
