Exploring the Beautiful Islands from Bali to Lombok

The islands of Indonesia are the most beautiful in the world. Bali and Lombok are two of the most beautiful, with rich cultures and perfect waves. In this tropical combination box you can find all the best in the world: world-class surfing, beautiful views and mental peace. From the busy surfing spot of Bali to Lombok’s the raw beauty, your journey will be one through these two islands that you will never forget.

Why Travel from Bali to Lombok?

Travel from Bali to Lombok is not just a trip but an entire journey. Although these islands are close to each other and can be reached with a boat or plane, but have different things to offer.

Bali Island is full of life and modern fitness. This is a great way to start learning about Indonesian surf culture and warm lives. However, Lombok is a more peaceful and natural place to visit. A place like a bush, a beach, or a surf spot that still feels like a secret gem.

Someone who doesn’t want to pick just one vibe, why not mix them both? With helped transfers, surfboards, surf gears, and unique surf camp packages, DHM makes it easy to enjoy the best of both islands.

Start in Bali: Culture, Café, and Consistent Surf

Start in Bali

Bali is a popular place for long surfers, digital nomads and tourists who want to mix culture easily on travel. It is no surprise that some of the most famous surf camps in Indonesia are.

Dreamsea Surf Camp Bali offers luxury right on the ocean and steady waves, making it a popular place for surf camps in Bali. Great for surfers who want to be comfortable without giving up the fun.

Surf camp Canggu: People love this place for their cool cafes, live surf culture and simple atmosphere. Digital nomads and a great place for those who have never traveled before.

Padang Padang Surf Camp: Reef breaks and pro-level waves can be found here. This is the place to be if you want to test yourself on the board.

The location, the lifestyle, or the surfing experience, each of these surf spots give different vibes. After taking in all the energy of Bali, it’s time to take it slow down and enjoy the magic of Lombok.

Lombok: Peace, nature, and clean waves

Going to South Lombok is like taking a big breath after a busy few days in Bali. You’ll be closer to nature and it will be quieter.

This is where DHM surf camps come in handy.  Our camps are in the middle of South Lombok and are meant to help you get back in touch with nature, your body, and the surf.

How Come You Pick DHM in Lombok?

  • Experience real island life: Lombok is a real vacation because it has fewer tourists and more natural beauty. There are not as many people at the surf spots, so you can get more waves and more peace.
  • Surf all day and take it easy at night: Surf lessons, healthy food, and comfortable rooms are all available at DHM camps. Everything is made to maintain vitality and calm.
  • The Best Value Packages: We think that everyone should be able to surf well without spending a lot of money. All level of surfers can get a lot out of our packages.

Amazing team, so warm and welcoming. Food was so good and so fresh. Rooms were lovely. Surf coaches were super. Also really great to be situated just beyond the craziness of the main strip in town.

What an incredible experience at DHM surf camp. The accommodation and home base in its entirety is stunning (looks so much better in person than the photos), nestled in a quiet part of Kuta but close enough to still have access to all of the best parts of the city too. The people who work there are incredible - nothing is too much to ask, they are all so friendly and more than happy to help in any way they can. The food is delicious, and the two meals a day are a great way to stay fueled for the two surfs a day. The surf coaches are incredible - not only highly skilled, but also just lovely and engaging people who are really focused on ensuring you both enjoy and improve with your surfing. They’re often the loudest and most encouraging coaches out in the waves, and create such a great atmosphere for everyone. You’ll get to know Lola (resident cat) and enjoy the yoga in an incredible location. I can’t wait to return to Kuta and will definitely be staying at DHM again 🏄

We spent 2 weeks at the DHM Surf Camp. The accommodation was top‑notch — we loved the clean and comfortable rooms with AC and appliances like a TV, fridge, and kettle. Every day we received fresh towels, refilled water bottles, and a thoroughly cleaned room and bathroom. And I mean really clean. There was also a swimming pool and several common areas for relaxing or eating, equipped with a pool table, books, refreshments, and music. There is also a working restaurant service with breakfast, dinner and snacks. The staff — both the accommodation team and the trainers — were VERY helpful, communicative, and genuinely caring about whether everything was okay during our stay. If you need anything they will magically make it happen. A big shout‑out to Javi, Pian and most of all Kai, our instructor, who had a constantly positive attitude, more patience than all of us combined, and always believed in us. He gave us great advice throughout the whole course. Surf students get an individual approach, photo analysis sessions, may participate in gym classes and yoga classes, which we highly recommend. DHM can make a surfer even from someone as hot-headed and wooden as me. All in all, we had an unforgettable time with DHM. We hope to come back there one day 😉

Een surfkamp waar je je echt thuis voelt en warm ontvangen wordt! Iedereen was super vriendelijk en vrolijk. Extra dank aan Afvila voor haar gastvrijheid & snelle communicatie via whatsapp! We werden hier verwend met lekkere verse maaltijden en drankjes, waarbij we zelf konden kiezen of we dit voor/na het surfen wilden. De surf training en yoga les waren leuk als aanvulling en goed geregeld via hun transport. De surflessen waren op verschillende spots, wat een goede variatie gaf in golven. Het is ook ideaal dat we dezelfde coaches hadden doorheen de week zodat je progressie goed opgevolgd kan worden. Ze waren geduldig en probeerden ons zoveel mogelijk goeie golven te geven. Bedankt aan Bruno en Gus hiervoor 😉 De foto’s werden telkens ook snel geüpload en waren zowel leuk als leerrijk om te zien!! Ardi is een echte topper! Als laatste waren wij ook superblij met het comfort in de kamers en de heerlijke ligbedden aan het zwembad, ideaal voor een dutje na het surfen!

This place is unbelievable. I came here as a Aussie on my own for a seven day stay and it really did exceed expectations on every level. All of the staff are great, always A great vibe and so happy to help. Afvila Is amazing and very friendly she helped me learn some Indonesian and took care of everything for me from day one. My surf Coach was Khay, He helped me improve so much over the trip. He takes his job very seriously and make sure to get you on plenty of waves with some form of instruction after every wave. super happy with his coaching and my progression over the course of my stay. Special mention to Pian He’s just the greatest vibe. He put me onto a few really good waves as well And never failed to have a smile on his face, absolute superstar. You’d be doing very well to get either of these guys as your coach. They are super knowledgeable and passionate about helping you to improve. My room was cleaned immaculately every single day. There’s always someone around Should you need anything and The food is exceptional. they really do cater to anything that you need. This is no ordinary hotel I will definitely be Back and recommend to all of my friends and family. Thank you very much to the whole team at DHM. I already can’t wait for my next trip.
