Highlights
  • Learn to surf at the famous Surfers Paradise Beach
  • Develop confidence in the water with qualified instructors
  • Stand up on your board during the first lesson
Full description
Meet your instructor and get set up with the proper rash shirt or wetsuit and board and head to the beach. Begin your 2-hour lesson with a safety briefing and basic instruction. Once everyone has caught their first few waves in waist-deep water, you’ll return to the sand for more detailed instruction on stand-up procedures. The remainder of the lesson will be spent in the water with instructors helping everyone stand up. Most participants have low expectations and don’t think they’ll be able to stand up during their first lesson. When you and the rest of the group are successful, there’s excitement all around!
Includes
  • Long-sleeved rash shirt or wetsuit
  • Soft beginner surfboard
  • 2 hours of instruction and fun
  • Sunscreen
  • Food and drinks
Not suitable for
  • Children under 8 years
  • Pregnant women

It’s definitely worth it to take that lesson if you have never tried surfing before. You get a great mixed (theory+practical) introduction. It was so much fun. The surfing teachers took care of us and helped us a lot to make our first nice surfing moves.

From getting to the meeting point till returning was great and easy going. We was all different ages but Blake and Zander made sure we all got to have fun and manage to stand up on the board at least once. It was literally fun from start to finish. Would definitely recommend this surf school

Such a great team. We loved our surf lesson so much and both managed to stand up. I had a whole days surf lesson years ago and couldn't even get on the board properly by the end, our teachers here had a great technique and a lovely style of teaching. Would definitely recommend.
