LEARN TO SURF IN SCHEVENINGEN
Hart Beach Surf School is located on the beach of Scheveningen, right in front of the Benelux's premier surf spot: all year round, you can learn to surf the North Sea waves right in front of our surf school! Do you want to learn how waves work, how to master them, and of course, catch that wave? Our surf crew consists of dedicated instructors who will join you in the water 365 days a year. Anyone can learn to surf, including you!
Also possible to book with the Ooievaarspas.

ADULT SURF LESSONS
This is what a surf lesson looks like
Ready for your first wave or want to fine-tune your technique? In our 2-hour lessons (1.5 hours in winter), under the guidance of a pro, you'll hit the surf directly. We work in small groups of maximum 6 people, ensuring you receive all the personal attention you need.
What Can You Expect?
- Full focus: You are on the beach or in the water for the entire lesson; theory and practice go hand in hand.
- All-in Gear: Use of a surfboard and a fresh Roxy or Quiksilver wetsuit is always included. In winter, you'll also get warm boots, gloves and a cap!
- Winter Special: After your winter lesson, a steaming hot cup of soup will be waiting for you.
- Flexible: We schedule lessons in consultation, whenever it suits you (and the forecast).
What you will learn
- Ocean Safety: Understanding safety, right-of-way rules, and currents.
- Board Control: How to control your board in the surf.
- The Pop-up: Catching waves and learning to stand up stably.
- Technique: Paddling, take-off timing, and reading waves.
- Next Steps: Surfing 'down the line' and making your first turns.

Surfing in winter
We're not deterred by a little cold, and neither are you! With our high-end winter gear from ROXY and Quiksilver, you'll barely notice the freezing temperatures:
- 5/4 mm Wetsuits: Our thickest suits keep your core temperature perfectly regulated.
- Full Protection: Including warm neoprene booties, gloves, and caps, so not a drop of cold gets in.
- The After-Surf: After 1.5 hours of charging in the waves, you can warm up immediately under our scorching hot showers, and a steaming cup of soup will be waiting for you by the fireplace.
