Surf Lessons in Perhentian Kecil is a beginner-focused surf school located on the main beach of Perhentian Kecil, Perhentian Islands. The lessons take place in the calm, shallow bay of Long Beach, where gentle waves break close to shore. Each session combines land-based technique drills with guided in-water practice, using soft-top boards suited to first-timers.
What to expect
- Lessons run for 2 hours, including a 20-minute shore briefing on paddling, pop-up technique, and wave-reading before entering the water.
- All equipment is provided: a soft-top surfboard, leash, and reef-safe rash vest, with board sizes matched to your height and weight.
- You will practice catching unbroken waves in waist-deep water, with the instructor pushing you into waves and correcting your stance after each ride.
- The activity suits complete beginners and casual swimmers, as the teaching area has a sandy bottom and no strong currents during the morning tide.
- Each session concludes with a video replay on a smartphone, showing your pop-up timing and balance for immediate feedback.
- Group sizes are capped at six participants per instructor, ensuring each person receives individual attention during the in-water portion.
