I had a surfing lesson from Chris, and from there on I know I'm hooked forever. Its not just a surfing lesson but you will get a glimpse of everything that surrounds that life, most importantly - the happiest mood ever :). Chris is very professional but not in a strict way, you simply feel very safe when going out... More

I really enjoyed my first days surfing on Lembogan, paradise island! I felt very safe thanks to Chris and Captain Planet (taciturn but true monitor from Lembogan who join Chris on each trip). They took us on the best spots, helped us, were very professional, but always easy going. Far from being only focused on the surf in itself, Chris... More

Can highly recommend Monkey Surfing if you are on Lembongan and/or Bali. Had a great time with Chris and Planet who always made me feel safe and took me to spots that they felt I could cope with (stark contrast to other surf camps in Bali). Lembongan feels I suppose like Bali might have felt 20 years ago. less crowded,... More

Chris runs a great business on the waterfront at noosa Lembongan. I hired a board and went out at sunset. The board is carried onto the beach and off I went on calm waters to the edge of the surf spot and then to the pontoon. You can tie up the board and go snorkling in the torquoise waters. More

We both rented equipment and took lessons with Chris at Monkey Surfing. I actually damaged a board and the repair cost he charged me was very low. Chris runs a great and shop and school with nice equipment, worth a visit for sure. More

I did the surf lesson with my sister. The instructor came to our hotel the previous day to tell us about what we could expect. They picked us up from our hotel, provided all the gear, talked us through technique on the land and then took us into the water. I was quite terrible, but the instructor was very patient... More

Nusa Lembogan is a fantastic beach and surf spot and –although I was a bit scared at the idea of it as I am not that much of a “water person”- I planned a visit there to take few surf lessons! I had a chat first with Chris of Monkey Surfing and he immediately put me at ease giving, precisely... More

Chris has a very comfortable and clear teaching manner an loads of patience.. (which sometimes male instructors dont have when they teach females!) and attentive manner. He also provided a 5 star...
