The best experience in my whole life! That was my dream to learn surfing. I was really happy to choose this guys. evErything was really easy to understand without my perfect English. Nice theory lesson and practice!
Thanks a lot for the feedback and so glad to be part of to make your surfing dream come true. Keep continue surfing and hope to see you back in Hikkaduwa. Best Regards , Hippy Surfcamp
What a pleasant team! My wife started talking to them while we were still in the UK ( via whatsapp) and they have been nothing but a delight. They kindly arranged transport from our hotel, ensure we got back safely and the lessons - they were very comprehensive. They taught her how to handle her self on dry land 1st and then when she got in the water it was a 1 to 1. She absolutely loved the team and the experience!
Thanks for the feedback, as a team we always work with our students requirements to arrange safe pickup as well as lessons. Its true pleasure that she enjoyed the session, at the end she did nicely. Wish you both a safe journey and enjoy the travel around Sri Lanka. Give us a shout if you back to Hikkaduwa next time. Cheers, Hippie Surf Team 🏄
We had a really nice surf lesson. Even the waves were difficult for us beginners, our teachers manage that we could learn a lot. All Team-Members were very friendly (especially dog Mogli) and helpful. Booking a lesson was very uncomplicated.
Thanks for the feedback Anja. We are super glad that you had enjoyed the surf session. Have a safe travel and give us a shout if you back in Hikkaduwa one day. Hippie Surf Team

He always corrected me right away and gave me helpful advices which helped me to stand up right away.

Thanks for the review. We are super happy to hear that you both had a good time and fun during your first surfing experience.
Had an amazing surfing first lesson with Rana. My goal was to ride at least 1 wave, but was able to get probably more than 15! Was really fun and had a lot of laughs. The whole crew there were really welcoming and easy to talk to. Definitely will go back next time I’m around!
Thank you so much for your review, we really appreciate it! So glad to hear you had a great time on your surf with us and scored some great waves... Looking forward to seeing you next year :) Stay safe and healthy, hope to see you next time. Best, Mia
It was an awesome Hikkaduwa surfing week! Great place, great waves and amazing instructors !!! Mia and Jonty are true professionals in their field - qualitatively explained the basic principles and conducted classes with a gradual complication. So in the end I could already catch the waves myself) I have never regretted that I had to get up at 6:30 to get to the very beginning. Jonty - thank you very much for your studies! Thank you!!!
Thanks for the feedback and we truly enjoyed your company. Also we are glad to recommend you as a 'fast learner' based on the progression showed during the sessions. Keep continue surf and hope to see you next year in Hikkaduwa. Best regards, Hippie Surf Team
My girlfriend and I were warmly welcomed by our instructors. They let us use surfboards that were in magnificent condition and they guided us all the way. They were very polite and helped us learn more with each wave. The only thing they didn't particularly focus on was teaching us how to surf without an instructor. Ie: how to paddle out and overcome swells and paddle to catch waves by ourselves. They were however extremely generous and let us both come back later in the afternoon for 1 hour free use of the boards.
Thanks for the feedback and wish you happy new year 2020! During each session, our instructors personally monitoring students and we only teach next level surfing techniques (paddling / turtle role etc) for those grab the technique faster and have excellent body balance on the water.
Just wanted to recommend this place. Great instructors, great in teaching and all with great personalities. Definitely making this my morning routine during my stay. Get up early and take an hour with these guys and you’ll have a great start of your days...
Thanks for the feedback. Somehow we have missed to answer before, hope you make progress of surfing.
The staff of the hippie surf school were very patient and gave us great tips for beginners both during the introduction on shore and during surfing per se and were at our side in the form of one-on-one support. With a smile on his face and suggestions for improvement, any hint of frustration was immediately gone. Thanks for the great time!🏄🏼♀️ —— Hippe surf school team was absolutely patient with us. They gave us the best tips and advices both in the water and during the instructions on the beach. We had a one-on-one session and every failed try wasn’t that bad because of the funny and positive instructors. We'd come back anytime. Thanks for spending a good time with us!🏄🏼♀️
Thank you for taking the time to write us this review and we are stoked to hear that you had a great surfing experience with us! Hope to see you back in Hikkaduwa next time.
