We offer kids from 5- 16 years regular group sessions, these are on every weekend and every day during school holidays. The lessons go for 90 minutes. It is best to get there 10 minutes before the start of your lesson, so you have time to get ready. We are very strict at sticking to our ratios. We have up to 7 participants to every Surf Coach. This ensures you are getting plenty of attention and help throughout the lesson. The group size can vary depending on the time of year, but usually, we keep our groups quite small.

Please note children under 10 must have a gaurdian at the beach.
