Ask for Bea!

5.00I got a lesson for my daughter for her 11th birthday. She is a complete beginner with not much experience in the ocean. Her instructor was Bea and she was hands down the best instructor for my daughter. She helped her feel safe and confident in the water and had her standing up by the end of her first lesson! She was the loveliest and friendliest person and we are so grateful to her that we have decided to book in some more lessons with her specifically. Thanks Bea for giving my girl the best birthday :)
Excellent

5.00We had two 2 hours lessons yesterday and today. We learned a lot from our instructor who was really nice, professional and good at explaining what to think of. Me and my daughter could stand up and surf the waves on our own after the first lesson.
Loads of fun

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.
