Fun for the whole family

About

Surfing is a brilliant group activity for the whole family. Your age, fitness, or surf experience don't matter; fun will be had by all!

This booking is for a family group taking part in an open group lesson and is valid for 4 people (max. 2 adults). If there is availability in the selected lesson time, additional participants can be added for £25pp, up to a maximum of 6.

We provide all the equipment you'll need, including high-quality 5mm thick winter wetsuits that keep you toasty, and gloves, boots, and hoods if needed.

What to expect?

You'll check in and meet your instructor. Then we'll get changed and head down to beach for an introduction, theory and important safety info. After getting loose with a warm up we'll get in the water, where your instructor will give you personalised advice based on your ability and goals. Time for fun in the sea! We'll have about 1.5 hours water time, and the lesson will last about 2 hours total after we're changed and on the beach.

What will I learn?

If you're a beginner, we'll cover beach & ocean safety, and introduction to surf equipment, wave selection and catching broken waves independently, and pop-up technique (standing up). Depending on your level and the conditions of the day, we will move on to cover speed control, turning left and right, paddling out and the turtle roll, catching unbroken green waves, angled takeoffs, bottom turns, and cutbacks.

What to bring?

Please bring a towel, sunscreen, and water. We recommend you arrive with swimwear on (for under your wetsuit) as it makes it easier to get changed at the beach.

Requirements

• We ask that everybody taking part in our surf lessons can swim unaided.
• All ages are welcome to join us surfing! Under 8s must be accompanied by an adult to assist the child in the water. For younger or less confident participants taking part in a family group, please consider selecting our private upgrade to have an instructor exclusively for your family.
