Surf Spots in Sanur: Baby Reef & Serangan

Sanur's waves break out on the reef, not on the beach. That's why the boat taxi is your best friend here. These are the two spots we surf most, and we'll pick the right one for your level and the day's swell.

Baby Reef: the best beginner wave in Sanur

Baby Reef is a small, friendly break just off Sanur, and it's perfect for first-timers and fun sessions. The waves are gentle and easy to ride, and the water over the shallow reef is calm and not too deep. Families and groups of friends love it, and sunset sessions here are pure magic.

Serangan Reef: for when you want more

Serangan is a short ride from Sanur and one of Bali's favourite spots. It has consistent waves all year round, with both lefts and rights, and more power than Baby Reef. It's a great step up for intermediate and advanced surfers.
