Awesome surfing experience Lorne - I had an excellent session with Joel. He was very chilled and gave great suggestions. Just the right amount of instruction to refine my surfing. Managed to catch some bigger waves thanks to Joel’s encouragement. Would highly recommend.

Would highly recommend a private surf lesson. - We had a 3 person private surf lesson with Owen. We had an amazing time, his coaching was perfectly tailored to our level and was very helpful and easy to understand, so we all improved by the end of the lesson. Owen even went above and beyond to capture some great GoPro footage of us. Great value for money, as we paid less than we have for a large group lesson elsewhere in Australia. Would highly recommend.
