Adventure Tips
Arrive Early for Best Waves
Morning sessions often offer cleaner, less crowded waves—plan to start early to maximize your lesson quality.
Wear a Wetsuit Year-Round
Southern Ocean waters stay cool even in summer; wetsuits provided but bring swimwear underneath for comfort.
Hydrate and Protect Skin
Sunny Australian sun combined with saltwater can be dehydrating; bring water and reef-safe sunscreen.
Communicate Your Goals
Be clear with your instructor about your current skills and what you want to improve for a focused lesson.
