Absolutely brilliant t morning spent learning to surf. The instructors were fantastic, couldn’t speak highly enough of them and they made the day what it was was. If you want to learn to surf, do it with go ride a wave, you’ll be glad you did.
Really fun experience. First time surf and the instructor got me on my feet. Highly recommend 5*. Book it !!
Fun instructors, great spot to learn. It was our first time, and despite me not being very good we had a lot of fun. I would go back without hesitation. The group size was good, I think about 8-10 people for 2 instructors, so perfect to get some help if needed. We wish it lasted a bit longer, but for a first time it was just enough to not get too tired and go on with our day. The meeting spot was a bit far from the main street and we weren't sure we were walking in the right direction, but once we were there it was very easy to find the group.
Fun time, clear instructions.bring someone not surfing to take pictures and videos. Helpful instructors they're out there encouraging and catching the waves

Such a great experience! My two daughters and two friends had such a blast learning to surf. Reezey, their instructor was friendly, patient, and knowledgeable, and able to help with different experience levels. He helped them to catch lots of waves, as well as helping them to understand some things about the waves along the way. Big smiles all around

Awesome experience with Sisi
Hi Claudia, Thank you for the great review! We’re so happy you had an awesome experience with Sisi. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words — hope to see you again soon!
The whole experience was just great. The course size was very pleasant, the surf instructors were in good spirits and both funny and professional. Which was especially good: We were really fast in the water after an understandable and practical introduction on the beach and everyone in the course managed to stand on the board at least once! That was a lot of fun and encouraging! Thanks to the whole team and especially Scott :-)
Hi Vanessa, Thank you so much for your amazing review! It was an absolute pleasure having you in the lesson, and we’re so glad you had such a fantastic experience. We love keeping our class sizes small so everyone gets plenty of support, and it’s great to hear you enjoyed the balance of fun and professionalism from the team. Awesome to hear the beach intro helped you feel confident and got you into the water quickly — and even better that everyone stood up on the board! That first wave is always such a special moment. Thanks again for your kind words and for giving a special shoutout to Scott — we really appreciate it! We hope to see you back in the water with us again soon for more fun waves 🤙
Awesome day on the waves. After a 30yr break, the best group to refresh my skills and learn a few tricks to make it easier for my old mechanics body to surf again. Great to be back on the waves. Definitely recommend a lesson with the go ride a wave crew at Noosa.
Hi, Love this—what a comeback after 30 years! 🙌 We’re so glad you chose to get back out there with us and that we could help fine-tune a few things to make it all feel smoother (and a bit kinder on the body too!). There’s nothing like that feeling of being back on a wave, and it’s awesome to hear you had such a great day with the crew at Noosa. Really appreciate the recommendation—hope we see you out there again soon for round two! 🌊
