LokaSurf is a booking platform that connects surf lesson participants with independent local surf instructors. We find, vet, and coordinate instructors — but we do not employ them. Every instructor on LokaSurf is an independent contractor who delivers the lesson directly to you.
LokaSurf is operated by LokaSurf. Contact: lokasurf.team@gmail.com
When you book through LokaSurf, we give you:
We do not provide surf instruction directly. The quality, safety, and execution of the lesson is the responsibility of the individual Instructor. That said — every instructor on LokaSurf has been personally selected, and if something goes wrong, we want to know about it immediately.
A booking is confirmed only when full payment is received via Stripe. Once confirmed, you'll receive lesson details — including meeting point and time — via WhatsApp or email.
Bookings are subject to availability and ocean conditions. The Instructor has sole discretion to assess whether conditions are safe for your lesson on the day.
By completing a booking, you also agree to the Waiver & Release of Liability. Both documents apply.
Every LokaSurf lesson includes: surfboard, pre-water beach practice, in-water coaching, and transport to the surf spot where required. What's not included: wetsuit (not needed at Lombok — tropical water, 28–30°C), food, and any personal expenses.
Prices are listed in Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) with approximate Euro equivalents for reference. Exchange rates vary — the amount charged by Stripe is the definitive figure shown at checkout.
LokaSurf reserves the right to update pricing. The price shown at the time of your booking is the price you pay.
Refunds are processed through Stripe and typically appear within 5–10 business days. In cases where the cancellation is not LokaSurf's fault (e.g. you cancel late), Stripe's processing fee is not recoverable and will not be refunded.
Participants under 18 require written consent from a parent or legal guardian before booking. By booking on behalf of a minor, the parent or guardian accepts all terms and the Waiver on their behalf.
All Instructors are independent contractors. LokaSurf vets and selects each one personally, but is not responsible for their individual actions during a lesson. Instructors are responsible for their own equipment, compliance with local regulations, and insurance where required by local law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, LokaSurf's total liability for any claim arising from a booking is limited to the amount paid for that specific booking. LokaSurf is not liable for personal injury, loss of property, or other damages arising from surf lesson participation, except in cases of gross negligence or wilful misconduct by LokaSurf directly.

If you share photos, videos, or reviews with LokaSurf (including via the post-lesson review process or by tagging @lokasurf), you grant LokaSurf a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use that content on its website and social media.

LokaSurf collects only the data required to process your booking. Full details in the Privacy Policy.
We may update these Terms as the business grows. If we make material changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the platform means you accept the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of Estonia. Any dispute that cannot be resolved directly — and we strongly prefer to resolve things directly — will be subject to the exclusive appropriate legal jurisdiction.
