The Point at Batukaras is widely regarded as one of the best places in the world to learn—and fall in love with—surfing. Set in a beautiful tropical bay, this iconic surf spot offers the perfect balance of safety, fun, and progression for beginners and intermediate surfers alike.
Why Batukaras Is Perfect for Surfing
- Soft sand bottom & warm tropical water
Friendly, forgiving conditions make learning safe and enjoyable—no reefs, no stress, just pure fun. - Slow, clean, peeling waves
These waves give you plenty of time to stand up, find your balance, and refine your technique at your own pace. - Long rides with multiple sections
As your skills improve, you can move up the point—from gentle rolling walls in the middle of the bay to faster, more hollow sections near the take-off zone. - Easy surfboard rentals on arrival
No need to pre-book. Simply arrange your board directly with the local surfers when you arrive.
Tip: Rental boards vary in quality, so if you’re chasing a specific board type, bringing your own is recommended.
