About
Our private surf lessons are done in small, privately booked groups to allow us to focus entirely on your skillset so that you get the most out of each and every lesson. We will help you develop a plan for improvement and you’ll leave us with a clear direction of what to do next. As we spend more time one-on-one we are able to provide more direct feedback than we would in a larger group lesson, helping your surfing skills progress faster. It doesn’t matter if you’re a total beginner, or if you’ve been riding a while, we have instructors for your level of surfing.
We are accredited by Surfing England the UK’s National Governing Body, and all our conscientious instructors are qualified, so you can be sure you are in safe hands.
