Sun bed Scam! When we first arrived were immediately greeted and asked if we wanted surf lesson/ rental. While enquiring we were told to sit down on one of the sun beds that lay in front of Warung Local. We then decided to buy a surfboard rental/boat trip to the surf. After the boat trip we had lunch and after finishing sat on the sun beds at the front, imagining this was included with lunch as it has been in different places in Kuta.

It is a complete scam. They give you a broken repaired board which will break again at the dangerous place they bring you. The board will break and they will ask you to pay 2,5 million and threaten you. Please check the other reviews on that establishment to see this happens all the time!
