One on One Coaching is available to fine-tune your surfing for £75 for the first two hours and £30 per hour thereafter. This session includes video analysis, tips on reading the line-up, paddling and positioning techniques and hints to develop your wave riding and repertoire. For an example of video analysis have a look at our YouTube channel.

Small Group surfing lessons can be booked for upto 6 people ( minimum of 3 people) at a rate of £40 per person per 2hr session. Fewer people = more personalised coaching. Price also includes all equipment required.

With small groups we can also offer a Safari option. We will pick you up from your accommodation, take you to where the best waves are on the day, give you a two hour surf lesson, let you practise for a couple of hours and then take you home. This is for groups of 3-5 people and costs £50 per person. This price includes all equipment required and transportation.

Our Junior Surf Club is for children aged 8 - 16 yrs who can commit to five Saturday sessions over the summer season. The Club is started with a £30 induction lesson but every session afterwards is £6 per person. These lessons are run at 10:30am and 2pm from April to November.

* Loyalty Card is redeemable against all new wetsuits, clothing and assessories. Surf Hire, surf lessons, surfboards and sale items are not included in this offer.
