Highly recommend - Very helpful and responsive when we made booking (last minute). On arrival everything was well organised with detailed briefing safety video. Surf instructor Luke was amazing and our teenage boys had an incredible time. To top it off, you can purchase photos and video at reasonable price (remember to tick pre-pay when you book lesson, well worth the discount and memory keepsake).

Awesome!! Could not... - Awesome!! Could not recommend more :) Instructors were super friendly and encouraging and made the experience fun for all experience levels. They made sure we were able to catch as many waves as possible and gave constructive feedback after each wave. This was the highlight of our trip for sure. Shoutout to our teacher Mark for his encouragement and teaching, was great to surf with you!

Great experience - Very nice lesson. You start as a group to explain the basic than there is one instructor per 2 people. But the other instructors on the water also the ones taking pictures are there to help and guide your safety. We had the instructor Tyler very good & calm. Very straight & clear instructions. Take 2 hours! As a beginner you need it.

First surf lesson and we’re stoked - My wife and I had an awesome time! We were stoked to ride multiple waves on our first surf lesson. Mark and the guys made it super fun, safe, and it was a great introduction to the sport. Highly recommend checking them out for a lesson.

Excellent for beginners, you will surf! - This was our first time surfing, and mind you we are not strong swimmers. Kevin and his team worked so well together, they were so kind and funny and had us laughing the whole time. At no time did I feel unsafe and best part is I was able to ride 2 long waves almost all the way to shore! Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn learn how to surf!

Pretty good - 4/5 pretty good 👍. Instructor seemed little bored and somewhat impatient. Good experience though if you’ve never surfed.

Great experience, not as exclusive as you might expect - Even if you book out a semi-private session (we booked 2 instructors for 4 people), there’s a large group of participants and instructors surfing at the same time in the area, so it’s not as exclusive as you might want it to be. But the instructors were really helpful and encouraging. We had a great time learning the basics of surfing and riding the waves.
