Surfing lessons
For absolute beginners, we lay the foundation with a focus on fun and safety. Are you already a step further? Then we dive deep with Surf Coaching.
With the help of video analysis and 1-on-1 guidance, we dissect your technique, improve your posture, and ensure you finally take that next step towards becoming an 'intermediate' or 'advanced' surfer.
Skateboarding lessons
Improve your surf skills on dry land!
Did you know that the best surfers in the world almost daily ride a surfskate? In our skate lessons, we focus on flow.
The boulevard of Scheveningen and our own skate pool are our playground! Whether you want to learn to cruise on a longboard, fix technical tricks on a skateboard, or perfect your surf turns on a surfskate

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a swimming certificate mandatory to participate in the camps?
Yes, if your child wants to participate in the surf camp, they must have a swimming certificate A (or a similar foreign certificate).
What if the weather is bad?
Safety comes first. Every Sunday before the camp starts, we make an assessment and plan based on the weather. In case of bad weather, we opt for alternative activities, such as a visit to a museum or an indoor skate park.
What if there are no waves?
If there are no waves, we organise other fun water activities such as stand-up paddleboarding or skimboarding. We also do active beach activities such as beach games and other games.
Are the supervisors and surf instructors experienced enough?
The surf camps are led by an experienced camp leader, together with a team of enthusiastic supervisors and certified surf instructors. All instructors hold a first aid and lifeguard diploma. We work with small groups, so there is always sufficient supervision in the water. In addition, there is extra supervision on the beach for activities, photos, and rest breaks. This ensures there is always sufficient supervision, both in the water and on the beach.
What should my child bring?
Swimwear, a towel, an extra T-shirt, a warm jumper, socks, closed shoes (for skateboarding), long trousers, and your own water bottle. And a big smile, of course!
