People Love Dollar
Harriot B, London
“Dollar taught me everything I know about surfing. When I first showed up I could barely stand up and was pretty nervous in the water, but he just made it all feel easy. He knows exactly how to explain things without overcomplicating it, and somehow you just start improving without really noticing.
Every session felt really personal — he’d read the conditions, push me when I needed it, and keep it fun the whole time. There’s always a lot of laughing, even when you wipe out, and you end up staying out way longer than you planned because you’re just enjoying it.
Somewhere along the way he also became a great friend. I’ve surfed in a few places since, but it’s never quite the same — I always end up coming back to Lembongan to surf with him.”
Mark T., Sydney
"Diving with Dollar was unforgettable. We explored coral gardens teeming with colour, drifted past manta rays, and I always felt completely safe in his hands. He has an incredible eye for detail, pointing out small marine life I’d have never noticed, while keeping the whole experience relaxed and bespoke. Easily one of the best private dives I’ve ever had."
