Hi there, I'm Libby owner of Wavecrest Surf School. I've surfed for 30 years and been teaching surfing for 20 years here in Jbay.
We like to keep it real, it is not about making a pro, it's about introducing everyone (young or old) to a way of life, the fun, the love of the ocean the excitement from every wave.
Our staff create a warm, friendly atmosphere which is hard to beat. It is professionally run with good vibes at all times.
We all Love what we do!!

5.00Three lessons of two hours each that I loved. The Mood at this school is great. Everything is done very seriously but without taking itself seriously. The instructors are friendly and very competent. Anyway, we feel good. Thanks to Andrew and his whole team. My first surfing experience will live in my memory.
Best surf school and instructors in JBay!!
