Reviews

"Just wanted to say thank you, my son absolutely loved his surf lesson with Dan and Will. He had few lessons for Xmas, first surf lessons. He loved it soo much. He felt really comfortable, had so much fun. We definitely will be booking when back!"
Zita Nagy
"I did an adult beginner surf lesson with my partner and a friend, and we had a great time! Conrad was an excellent teacher and did a great job explaining the basics and helping us to get out and grab some waves. I would highly recommend giving these guys a try!"
Travis McKenna
"Had an amazing lesson with Will! He was patient, encouraging, offered great advice and super fun to talk to. I've taken a few lessons in Canada but struggled with standing. After today, I was able to stand up consistently and even turn! Highly recommend, hopefully I will be back!!"
Chandra Reddy
"My kid has done a few lessons and holiday camps with Dan and the Salty surf school crew. She loves it, and always comes back with a huge smile! The coaches are very focused on the kids during the lessons, so the kids feel very safe and always get tailored tips, which helps them improve fast and boost their confidence. All kids her group have improved their surfing a lot after just one term of before school lessons, and all in a very friendly and fun environment!"
Freddie Collis
"That was the best surf lesson I've ever had. The coach was super nice, explained everything really well, and immediately tried to correct my mistakes! It's definitely worth the money! Anyone who couldn't surf before will definitely be able to afterward! Cheers, Tim"
