Environment and Food

Plastic

Padang Padang Surf Camp commits to an environmental sustainability program, meaning we do not provide plastic water bottles. You are recommended to bring a water bottle which can be refilled from one of our many water dispensers. There is more than enough plastic in the ocean and on land already, and we discourage the use of single plastic items where practical.

Electricity

We encourage you to switch off all electrical appliances when not in use, such as aircon, fans and lights. Please do not waste water by leaving taps running at full flow unnecessarily as this is a precious resource in Bali during the dry season. When travelling in our vehicles, you are welcome to use either Aircon or open the windows, but not both.

Sauces

We do not provide any bottle sauces or syrups. We want you to taste the food as it really tastes. We understand that this can be challenging if you are used to putting ketchup or hot sauce on your food, but as intrepid travellers we hope you are open to trying new experiences. You are welcome to bring your own sauces or buy in Bali. We do provide seasoning such as salt, pepper, cinnamon and honey. Where a dish should be served with a sauce, our chefs provide a delicious freshly made sauce.

Food

We do not use tinned foods, frozen foods or preservatives. All our food is bought fresh in the local markets daily and everything is locally sourced. All chickens in Bali are free range and all fish and seafood is caught in the local waters.

Napkins

We do not provide single use napkins or paper towels but there is a washbasin in the dining area. It’s clean, simple and hygienic to wash your hands with water which comes from the mountain using gravity, and we recycle the water into the garden.
You will be pleased to know that we do provide toilet paper, but also there is a jet wash in every bathroom which is cleaner and more environmentally friendly.

We appreciate your dedication to making small changes to better our planet! Thank you for collaborating with us to achieve this goal.
