Fantastic experience - Thank you so much for having us – it was truly a fantastic experience. We really enjoyed the surf lessons as well as the stay at the camp itself. The breakfasts and dinners were the best we’ve ever had anywhere. The staff was incredibly kind and always willing to help with any questions or requests we had. We highly recommend it to families with older kids – surfing is an amazing experience for the whole family.

Best Surf Class in Lagos ! - I have never surfed before so I did not know what to expect. The surf instructors were so kind and helpful in explaining everything from the basics of surfing to helping me catch my first wave.

Beginner Surf Lesson - The beach we went to was so beautiful! The instructors were all very nice and helpful when teaching us to surf for the first time. AND we all did it and got up so I call that a win! Would definitely recommend - just be ready for a hard hike to and from the beach with your board.
