    Itinerary

    Bodyboards are smaller and lighter than surfboards; this means they’re generally easier to manoeuvre and quicker to learn on. These smaller boards, combined with a lower centre of gravity, make bodyboarding much less tiring than surfing. It’s also widely considered a much safer sport as the boards are made from foam and they avoid the sharp edges and fins synonymous with surfing. Due to the nature of bodyboarding, your lowered centre of gravity increases the feeling of speed. This means that catching even the slowest of waves will make you feel like you’re whizzing past the rest of your group in a magnificent blur! If you’re a complete beginner, we guarantee you’ll be catching your first white-water wave within the first 10 minutes of the lesson! We’ll teach you how to paddle out, trim correctly and how to select the right kind of waves for your ability. Bodyboarding is addictive to learn due to early goals being quickly attained. The initial learning curve of bodyboarding skyrockets exponentially with solid practice and time in the water. Our expert instructors will quickly progress you from broken white-water waves, to green, unbroken) waves for an unforgettable experience.
