Surf Retreat Bali - MEET YOUR HOST

MEET YOUR HOST

Meet Giada, your Bali Surf Retreat Host. Giada has grown up surfing the waves of the Bukit Peninsula and knows this coastline like home. With years of experience both in and out of the water, she’ll guide you through the Island of the Gods with local knowledge, good energy and a genuine love for the place she grew up in.

More than just a surf guide, Giada is here to take you beyond the guidebook — sharing her favourite corners of Bali, local insight, and the lifestyle that makes Uluwatu so special.

Become The Surfer You Want to be

Surf progression is at the heart of this retreat.

Led by professional surfer Giada Legati and supported by our female surf guides, you'll surf twice daily during Bali's most consistent season, with sessions tailored to different levels so everyone receives the right waves, coaching and challenge.

What makes our approach different?

  • Two surf sessions daily with Giada and female surf guides
  • Small groups split by level for more personalised attention
  • Surf the best conditions each day across the Bukit's world-class waves
  • Daily video analysis and personalised feedback
  • Goal setting and progress tracking throughout the retreat
  • Mobility and injury-prevention exercises to support your surfing
  • Confidence-building both in and out of the water
Surf Retreat Bali - WELLNESS

Surf Hard. Recover Properly.

Surfing your best starts long before you paddle out.

Between sessions, take advantage of Villa Moso's private gym, infrared sauna, pool and plenty of space to slow down and recharge.

Giada will also incorporate low-impact training sessions and visit one of our favourite local Pilates studios to help you stay strong, move well and feel ready for another day of waves.

Because progression isn't about pushing harder. It's about taking care of yourself well enough to keep showing up.

Surf Retreat Bali - FOOD

Forget Boring Dinners

Bali has become one of the most exciting food destinations in the world, and we'd be doing it a disservice if we kept you eating at the villa every night.

Think of this retreat as half surf trip, half gastro tour.

We'll fuel your mornings with healthy breakfasts at the villa before heading out to surf. Then each evening, we'll take you to our favourite restaurants across the Bukit - some of Bali's trendiest dining destinations.

And because no Bali experience would be complete without it, we'll also share a traditional Balinese dinner together at the villa one evening.

Surf Retreat Bali - EXPLORE LIKE A LOCAL

EXPLORE LIKE A LOCAL

The waves may bring us to Bali, but they're only part of the story.

Between surf sessions, we'll show you the side of the island we genuinely love. Think hidden waterfalls, cultural experiences, local traditions and a few surprises we'll keep under wraps for now.

But don't expect a typical tourist itinerary.

We'll also take you to some of our favourite spots around the Bukit—from beautiful Pilates studios and Bali's iconic wellness spaces to cafés, spas and local gems that have become part of everyday life here.

After all, who better to show you Bali than Giada and the Kima team, who've spent years surfing, living and exploring this island?

Consider it Bali through local eyes.

VILLA MOSO:

This retreat is hosted at Villa Moso, a luxurious hilltop villa set on one of the most iconic viewpoints in southern Bali. It overlooks the island’s most famous surf breaks and can easily access spots like Uluwatu, Padang Padang, Bingin, Impossibles and Balangan.

Inspired by a modern tropical style, Villa Moso blends elegant architecture with relaxed luxury. Spanning three floors with four en-suite bedrooms, the villa features curated interiors, local artwork and spacious living areas designed for comfort and connection. Guests can enjoy private massage facilities, a sauna, fitness space, media room and an infinity pool overlooking the Indian Ocean — the perfect place to unwind between surf sessions. And yes, you can even check the waves from bed.

What makes this retreat different?
Great waves are only part of the story. This retreat combines surf progression with beautiful accommodation, incredible food, local experiences and a small group of women who simply get it. You'll improve your surfing with expert guidance, stay in a stunning villa, discover Bali through local eyes and leave with memories—and friendships—that last long after the trip is over. Think of it as part surf retreat, part girls' trip, part gastro tour.
Can I come alone?
Please do. Some of the best friendships in Kima started with two girls who had never met before sharing a surf trip. This retreat naturally attracts women who love surfing, travel and beautiful experiences, so arriving solo is never as scary as it sounds. Many guests arrive on their own. Most leave with friendships that continue long after the retreat ends.
What level of surfer do I need to be?
This retreat is designed for intermediate surfers and above. You should feel comfortable catching and riding unbroken waves independently and paddling out without constant assistance. Not sure if you're ready? Reach out and we'll happily help assess your level.
What does a typical day look like?
No two days are exactly the same, but most follow a similar rhythm. Start your morning with breakfast at Villa Moso before heading out for your first surf session. Afternoons might include a second surf, video analysis, recovery, a mobility session, exploring the area or one of our curated experiences. Evenings are reserved for sunset drinks, incredible food and sharing stories from the day. Think surf trip meets girls' getaway.
How much time will I spend with Giada?
A lot. Giada isn't just dropping in for a photo and disappearing. She'll be surfing, coaching, reviewing video analysis, joining dinners, sharing experiences and spending time with the group throughout the retreat. Think less 'host' and more experienced surf traveller, mentor and ultimate girls' girl.
Do I need to bring my own surfboard?
Not necessarily. You're welcome to bring your favourite board, but if you'd rather travel light, we'll help arrange high-quality rentals from Kima’s premium collection suited to your level and the conditions. If you're unsure what board would be best for the retreat, Giada and the team will happily advise before you arrive. After all, the only baggage we're encouraging is emotional support bikinis.
What local experiences are included?
We'll keep a few surprises for when you arrive, but expect much more than surfing. From hidden waterfalls and cultural experiences to beautiful wellness spaces, local gems and some of our favourite spots around the Bukit, we'll show you the Bali we genuinely love. No tourist buses. No crowded itineraries. Just the places we'd take our girlfriends if they came to visit.
What should I pack?
Think surf trip meets stylish holiday. Bring your surf essentials, activewear, swimwear, comfortable clothes for exploring and a few outfits for our dinners out. We'll send you a detailed packing list before the retreat, but let's just say you'll want something cute for dinner and something comfortable for chasing waterfalls.
What airport should I fly into?
Fly into Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Bali. Airport transfers are included, so once you land, we'll take care of getting you to Villa Moso. All you need to do is arrive excited.
Do I need travel insurance?
Yes, and make sure it covers surfing.
We want you focused on chasing waves, not worrying about what happens if something unexpected comes up.
All guests are required to have travel insurance that includes surfing, overseas medical treatment and emergency assistance.
It's one of those boring adult things that you'll hopefully never need—but you'll be very happy to have if you do.
Why Bali?
Because July is one of the most consistent months of the year on the Bukit. With world-class waves, endless sunshine, incredible food, a thriving wellness scene and a surf culture unlike anywhere else in the world, there couldn't be a better place to launch our very first Women's Surf Retreat.
Is Bali the only destination?
Not for long. Bali is the first stop in the Kima Women's Surf Retreat series, with future retreats already planned in some of the world's most beautiful surf destinations. Join our newsletter to be first in line when new locations and dates are announced. Trust us—you'll want to know what's coming next.
