Beginner surfing must do
Great experience overall. Our instructor, Jessi, was awesome and made sure to give the 5 of us in our group equal attention and tips enhance our technique. My husband and I were beginners so this was a perfect way to try! Thanks all.

Great Introduction
A bit of walking involved, but getting to a good spot to start the lesson was worth it. Make sure you are rested or are really conditioned to work through the jetlag. The session was great & informative, the instructor I got was super patient & really motivating; thanks to him I was able to kneel and really balance myself all the way back to shore without flipping over. Next time I'll make sure to go fully rested & conditioned; Great booking 55 🏄♂️

Amazing experience! Our...

One of the best parts of my trip to Australia (I have visited several cities and done different activities)
I loved it, the guys were incredible, you know, those people who transmit good vibes without knowing them? Well, those. They teach you the technique, help you with everything, they are super nice, and on top of that, they helped me with the language (my English is horrible). Honestly, people who make the experience unforgettable. Additionally, I had never surfed or done anything similar, and I found it very fun; in the group, you make friends and also get to exercise. I cannot ask for more. I simply want to thank these guys for the experience!!!

Fantastic experience
It was a fabulous experience with the Let’s Surfing team esp Dan who was extremely patient with non surfers like us. We enjoyed every moment. And if you’re a non swimmer like me , you don’t need to worry!

Great location, good instructors and fun day learning to surf! It was my son's highlight of our trip!
You spend about 40 minutes on land learning how to surf and practicing standing up on the board. Then you have about an hour and a half in the water. There surf was a little rough and there were lots of other people in the water that we had to navigate around. I like that we had 2 guides (1 was in training) so we had more 1-on-1 time to learn/practice.
