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.
