Liv was amazing!

5.00We are 54 and have never touched a surfboard. However, it’s been a dream of my husband’s to learn. Liv was his instructor, and her patience was unwavering. She was encouraging and relentless in helping him achieve the moment of getting up on his surfboard and glide into shore. Thank you, Liv, for making Alex’s dream come true!

5.00I bought a surfing lesson for my husband as a surprise while we were here for a trip! It was a bucket list for him, and he caught waves!! Mike was a great instructor and explained everything very well. I will definitely be joining next time!

5.00Dan was an awesome instructor for my husband and sister and me! None of us had ever surfed before, and all three of us got up standing on a wave more than once during the lesson. We now feel prepared to rent boards and go on our own at least one more time before our vacation ends. Highly recommend!
GREAT Experience!!!!

5.00I was paired with Dan and I had a blast! He did a great job at showing me safety procedures and how to get up on the board. This was my first time and I was able to get up a few times. I felt safe the entire time and would absolutely recommend this experience to any first timers.

Rude and Inconvenient - I’d recco another company

1.00I had a session booked, and the instructor gave me very little notice to travel over 21km to the new location. I had no way there. He blamed the swells for the location change - which is fair. I told him, not a worry, to simply cancel. But he then proceeded to be very rude, told me I “didn’t care for my safety” (I do, I’m not saying to surf in danger, just that i can’t make the new location so far away work) and informed me that regardless if I make it or not, he’s gonna charge me. He then threatened to take me to small claims court (over $150) if I didn’t pay. I’d say this business is probably struggling if they’re that desperate to keep customer money due to bad weather. I would advise you to book someone else with better customer service.
