  Great time. Kids love it. The trainers are friendly. Highly recommended especially if you have never learnt surfing previously. Our kids have taken similar lessons at Manly beach in Sydney and they found the waves and the learning experience was better at Manly. Hence, we gave this one 4 star.

  This class was amazing! Trent and the crew was super nice and knew how what to say to make us learn to surf! 2 hours was a perfect amount of time as well!

  We just had one of the best experiences in Surfers Paradise with this company. The instructions were amazing, and we had so much fun catching waves! Definitely one of the best surfing lessons I’ve ever done, highly recommended to everyone in the area. Thank you to all the instructors for making the last day of the year so memorable. We will definitely come back for more sessions!

  We had an incredible time at Surfers Paradise with our instructor Jack - he was really knowledgeable and made us feel really safe but also brave enough to try out the waves! A fab time thank you.

  We had our sufing lesson on Monday 15th December at 10am. We arrive 20minutes before to fill in the waiver, and put our bags in the available locker/cupboard. Our Group size was around 14, and the session started on time, even though a few people were late they still carried on, so make sure you arrive at least 15 mins early as advised when booking. The team were brilliant with us, discussing about surfing before we headed down to the beach, to start our lesson. The lesson is split into two sessions, which is really good, as session 1 goes thorugh how and when to get on the board, and when to lift your chesk up to ride the wave, this was done on the beach to begin with, then you had a good half an hour to get in the sea and do it. You ar then called in for the second session where you learn to stand up safly on the board, again this is done on the beach, and then you get another good half an hour plus, to do it in the sea. We had a really good time, and everything was explained fully, they do also have a photogropher who took loads of photo's which you can purchase at the end for $30. Overall it was a brilliant expirience, and the team are excellent at what they do, i would reccomend it to anyone.

• 10/10 First Surf Experience

  As two people from Birmingham, UK, who had never surfed before, we were a bit nervous about taking surf lessons while passing through the Gold Coast — but we’re so glad we bit the bullet and did it! From start to finish, the experience was a 10/10. The whole team were incredibly patient, reassuring, and made sure everyone felt safe, supported, and included at all times. As someone who is genuinely terrified of the sea (and especially sharks!), I never once felt pushed or uncomfortable. Everything was explained clearly, and the instructors constantly checked in to make sure we were okay. I only remember one instructor’s name — Jack — mainly because he spent so much time with me, encouraging me and helping me build confidence in the water. His patience and kindness honestly made the experience for me, and I can’t thank him enough. We had so much fun, even though it was absolutely exhausting in the best way possible! We’d highly recommend this to anyone, whether you’re a complete beginner or just a bit unsure — give it a go, you won’t regret it.

• Highly recommended

  It was my first try to surf and it was great! I took two lessons during my stay in Surfers Paradise. All instructors were professionals, they explained safety rules and how to begin to surf in details. They also supported us in the water. You should be prepared that it's not easy, but you definitely should try. The group was around 10-12 people but as the lessons lasts 2 hours the instructors had time to pay attention for each.
