Secret Spot is located in the south of Lombok, in the surfing village of Kuta. Our place is hidden away from the main street, still only 10 min walk from the beach and main strip of town.
There are various ways of getting to Lombok. The easiest is to fly to either Bali or directly to Lombok (we have an international airport). We are 25 minutes away from the international airport in Lombok.
You can also reach Lombok by ferry or fast boat from Bali or the Gili Islands. From any of the ports, you can catch a taxi that will take you straight to Kuta.
Our surf camps include airport pick-up.
Lombok is about a 20-minute plane ride from Bali, there are many flights every day that go from Denpasar airport. You can also get a ferry that will take between 3-6 hours.
Both islands have plenty to offer. Bali is way more developed as it’s been a tourist hotspot for many years. Lombok has a more traditional and authentic feel, it’s less populated and has less tourists. Lombok can provide a more authentic Indonesian experience. The surf line-ups are less crowded and provide a perfect opportunity to learn.
Lombok is a very safe location for travellers. But, like many other places in south-east Asia, there is petty crime and minor theft. We advise our guests to always travel on their motorbikes in the daytime and to avoid leaving any valuables on beaches or unattended. The Sasaks (Lombokians) are incredibly friendly and accommodating people that will always go out of their way to help tourists find their way.
Lombok’s international airport is about a 25-minute drive from Secret Spot, so you’ll be in Kuta in no time after landing.
The roads in Lombok is very well kept and lots of them are very new, this makes it easy to drive a motorbike. We recommend wearing a helmet at all times and having some experience driving as the roads can provide certain challenges such as reckless drivers, dirt, animals and rocks.
Secret Spot can give you advice on where to rent a bike. Secret Spot is however not responsible for anything to do with the rental, that is between the owner of the bike and the guest.
Secret Spot doesn’t rent out bikes, but we can help you to get in contact with a bike rental. Secret Spot is however not responsible for anything related to the rental, that is between the owner of the bike and the guest.

Our breakfast is healthy and filling. We serve everything from smoothie bowls to our popular surfer sandwich with a fried egg, spinach and tomato. Coffee, tea and juice are always included in our breakfast. Of course, we also have a vegan breakfast option.
We grilled fresh fish straight from Kuta’s fisherman village. usually yummy mahi-mahi or barracuda. Always served with lots of vegetables, tofu and tempeh. So this BBQ is also perfect and filling if you are a vegan or vegetarian.
There is beer and other drinks to buy from our bar.
Yes, we work with students that go from beginner to intermediate levels. We use video and photo analysis and also take our guests to the right surf break for their level in order to increase their skills quickly and efficiently.
We have around one instructor for every two students at Secret Spot.
We will surf once a day, each session lasts around 2 hours plus the time it takes us to get ready and get to the location.
We provide an authentic experience that shows you a side of Indonesia and the people that no other camp has. Our camp has a family vibe that will make you feel at home away from home. Come and experience something that’s completely unique.
It’s good, but not completely necessary to prepare your muscles for a surf camp, this way you’ll be able to pedal better and longer when you get to Secret Spot. You can try swimming or if that’s not possible try to do push-ups, squats and pull-ups every day for a few weeks before your stay so that your body is in better surfing shape.
You can start at any time of the week. Our surf photographer comes to take photos on Wednesday and our BBQ and fishing trip happen on Fridays.
If you have a non-surfing partner we can arrange a good price for your partner just accommodation and follow to the beach and sunset trip. Just add a comment in the message. (Click in the non-surfing partner through our booking system or add it to the comments.)
Usually, we go surfing in the morning and the fishing trip happens in the afternoon, Although everything depends on the weather conditions, swell and the group wishes. We always plan so that everyone gets the most out of their surf and holiday.
You can add more lessons into your surf camp. We can arrange to add the extra lesson once you have checked in on Secret Spot. Again it depends on swell and conditions from day to day.
We’ve designed our private rooms so that you can stay together in one double bed or separate in the double and single bed. The private rooms are still private.
