Itinerary
Perfect for beginners looking for an introduction to surfing, or if you've surfed a few times already, then ideal to improve and build on your current experience and skill! For students on their first lesson we will introduce all of the skills and techniques necessary to surf with control and safety. If you have already surfed, then we will use this session to build on more advanced techniques, including paddling, turning and reading the ocean. For all abilities, we spend approximately 20 minutes on the beach discussing, technique, skills etc. then the remaining time is spent in the ocean catching waves, with hands-on coaching from our surf coaches. Our innovative teaching method for beginners which involves holding the tail of the board, whilst the surfer gets to their feet. This helps stabilise the board until the surfer is standing, then they release and you enjoy the amazing feeling of riding the surf! For those who have already surfed, we will focus on improving your technique and catching more waves. We always split the groups based on your ability, so if you have already surfed, then you will join an improver group.
