Personalized Surf Coaching That Truly Helps You Improve

5.00It was possible to tailor the surf lesson to my individual needs. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, passionate about surfing, and they really push and motivate you. I would recommend to take a private lesson to anyone—especially if you want to improve your surfing but are no longer a beginner.
Great for kids

5.00My seven-year-old had a great time with two kids group surf lessons. Four in the group with one instructor. Shallow water, easy waves. She was able to stand up and ride many waves. She was very proud of herself. She will be back for more.

A Byron Bay Must-Do—Unforgettable Lesson!

5.00I did a private 1-on-1 lesson with Simon at Soul Surf School and honestly… I’m still buzzing. From the very first minute it was full of laughs, good vibes, and the kind of expert guidance that makes the impossible suddenly feel easy. Simon shared so much knowledge and broke everything down in a way that just clicked. I walked away doing things I never thought I’d be able to do. If you’re even thinking about surfing in Byron—book this. You won’t regret it.

5.00Had a fantastic surf lesson with Beatrice and Jonnie - great instructors, knowledgeable, fun, patient and encouraging. Ticked off a bucket list item: managed to surf a few waves standing up!
Great experience with surf instructor Levi!

5.00I just want to say a huge thank you to Levi, my surfing instructor, for an awesome, educational and friendly beginner surf lesson. Me and my girlfriend had never surfed properly before. Levi had us standing up and enjoying the waves within a few attempts. I really loved how caring and patient Levi was with my girlfriend, as she is not the most confident in the water. My lesson with Levi has really encouraged me to pursue further surfing lessons. A real shame that I am not staying in Byron Bay longer, as I would definitely have booked more days of lessons with Levi. I highly recommend Levi at Soul Surf School!
