Stop stagnating. Start progressing. Join Bali's only ISA-certified surf academy and unlock your true surfing potential.

Want to turn your passion into a career? This ISA training course in Bali, Indonesia offers you a clear and international path to becoming an ISA-certified surf instructor — the globally recognised benchmark in the surfing industry. An ISA certification allows you to teach legitimately in surf schools, camps and resorts, whether in Bali, Australia, Europe or the Caribbean.

Most surfers never progress beyond beginner-intermediate level. Why? Because their only options are superficial surf courses or expensive retreats. ISA Surf Bali is different: we combine expert coaching, proven methods and lasting results at an unbeatable price. Progressing in surfing is not a matter of luck, but of training, coaching and commitment. And we offer you all three, backed by many years of experience and proven results. Our immersive, results-oriented programme is open to all levels. With ISA-certified coaching, you will train daily on the dynamic waves of Bali, benefit from in-depth video analysis, targeted surfing theory and personalised feedback. It's a comprehensive, hands-on approach that guarantees measurable progress. If you're ready to commit, we're ready to take your surfing to the next level. Choose a 4, 8 or 12-week stay and experience a real transformation: develop your skills, your confidence and forge bonds within a community that values commitment. For those aspiring to a professional career, our programme also prepares you for the ISA Level 1 International Surf Instructor Certification.

Welcome to Surf Academy Bali: here, commitment pays off and your progress begins.

Pascalis, 29

"The course was brilliant. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced surfer, Sōleïa Surf will help you feel right at home in the world of surfing. After completing my training, I even had the opportunity to work as a surf instructor, which is even more exciting."

Matthieu, 34

"I was surprised by the richness of the SSA programme: surfing, video analysis, surfskate, freediving, surfing theory and magical excursions to several islands. It was an incredible adventure and I even had the opportunity to become an instructor after the training."

Aleksander, 20

"Joining the SSA was the best decision of my life! I loved every second of my stay at Sōleïa Surfcamp. The course was fantastic and the supervisory team is really great. The course itself is really top notch because you improve every day at surfing, and the instructors are very competent and available. We also had the opportunity to visit other islands in Indonesia, which was really great!"

Marleen B

I loved Sōleïa Surf! The house is beautiful, the staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, and the surf instructors are by far the best I've ever had. I took lessons at the Sōleïa Surf Academy and not only did my surfing improve considerably, but I also met some wonderful people. At Sōleïa, you feel like family. Thank you to the whole team!

Surf Trips included

Every month, discover a new island with exceptional waves, hidden jungle gems accessible by jeep, and world-renowned beaches just a stone's throw from your accommodation. Get ready to surf legendary spots in Java and G-Land, explore the hidden treasures of Lombok, and tame the crystal-clear waves of Nusa Lembongan.

Lombok

Bali's closest neighbour to the east is a booming surfing destination. From the gentle waves of Tanjung Aan to the often technical spots of Ekas, excellent waves are just a few minutes by boat from the coast!

G-land and Red Island

Quiet spots and perfect waves await you in the Javanese jungle. Hop aboard the jeeps, watch out for low-hanging branches, and discover why the World Surf League often stops here.

Nusa Lembongan

Small in size but huge in waves, Nusa Lembongan is renowned for the diversity of its reef surf spots. Here, there are no beach breaks: only crystal-clear waves breaking over coral reefs teeming with life. You'll find welcoming spots like Playgrounds, as well as more technical spots such as Razors and Lacerations. And the experience often includes sightings of dolphins and manta rays.
