It was a really great experience. Surfing is so much fun. Although it's really hard to stand up, it's still enjoyable to ride the waves. However, it has to be admitted that it's a very physically demanding sport. My friends and I felt very tired after the experience, but we were also very happy.

It was a fun and challenging experience, I really enjoyed it even though I didn't manage to stand up!

This was a lot of fun and the instructors were very patient and very encouraging. For first time surfers it was a bit difficult to pick up the technique in a short period of time. Only here on vacation but would take more lessons with them if we had the time. The class size was personal and you didn't necessarily feel rushed. They also captured good photos even though we weren't the best surfers.

This experience was great, especially for someone with no surfing experience. Our instructor, Luke was so encouraging and a great instructor. We had a blast and will remember this experience forever!

The whole experience was really great! The instructors were extremely friendly and made sure everyone felt comfortable before entering the water

This is must do activity if you and your kids love water and want to explore surfing. I went with my 6 year old and we not only enjoyed the session but also had the satisfaction to learn something new. All the instructors are extremely knowledgable and passionate to teach you. Although we had a big group they made sure everybody gets the attention they require. Me and my son were able to surf on small waves at the end of the session. I appreciate the efforts of all the instructor and the way they have designed this experience.There is dedicated photographer to capture amazing pictures and did amazing job capturing key moments to cherish for lifetime. I would highly recommend them if you plan a visit to gold coast or brisbane.

Clear instructions, good location and great vibes! Classes are conducted in shallow waters so great for anyone regardless of your ability to swim.

Teachers were very attentive and really wanted to help us succeed!
Would have liked to see someone spending more time behind the camera however as we never had any posed photos with our boards in our wetsuits

Surf instructor Alex is fantastic at teaching you how to be safe, how to get up on the board, and how to ride the wave. Throughout the lesson, he keeps giving you tips to help you improve. I was surprised that I got up on the board in about 90 minutes. This what so much fun. Take these lessons or you will regret it.

Instructors were very patient and helpful, it was a great experience (think we didn’t have a whole 2.5 hours? But it’s okay we were very tired at the end of it!)
Aundrae_F, Feb 2024
This is definitely something fun to do. It is not as easy as it sounds but the directions and model of how to do it made it much easier than it is. The instructors were able to closely notice any mistakes we made and tweak them. They had everyone standing on their boards and riding waves within the 2 hours. Very Fun and pcitures came out great
Anns_M, Jan 2024
It was so much fun and we had one teacher who was great, for three people. Therefore we got to surf a lot of waves and got to practice a lot. In the end I was able to stand every wave.
Lai_N, Dec 2023
The surfing lesson was great but it's finished earlier than the stated time. And that's what I disliked.
Yining_Z, Oct 2023
Pretty good experience! The couches were really nice!!! Gave very patient instructions so that would enjoy it!
Xoy_V, Aug 2023
Actually standing up on the surfboard :D Instructor explained safety & technique on getting up on the board simply and was helpful & experienced. I was at ease and prepped to put words into action. I think next time wearing a wetsuit would help with the cold water as it was on around 23 degrees
Indre_P, May 2023
Great experience! Tried surfing for the first time and managed to stand up on the board a few times :)
kris_J, Feb 2023
It’s a great experience. Coaches are experienced and patient. The kid really love it. He has lots of fun.It worth it .
Shiyao_L, Dec 2022
Highly recommend! Very patient and professional surfing coach! Thanks Alex for the detailed instructions and for helping to catch the wave!

Jody and Jay were excellent. The conditions were not ideal but you can't control the weather.
The guides were great in helping us get on the board. By the end some were doing very well having never been on a board before. A tribute to good instructions and following directions.
Celine_M, Apr 2026
Very friendly and helpful instructors. They managed to get everyone to stand on the board, giving good feedback. Good value for money

uns hat es sehr gut gefallen da man das surfen mit diesen brettern gut lernen kann und die theorie sxhnell durchgenommen wurde und wir viel praxis hatten
Luisina_R, Dec 2023
Nunca había surfeado antes, y el profe Alex me dio mucha confianza desde el principio!
Los profes son muy alegres y profesionales!
Dentro del agua siempre hay un profe cerca que te hace sentir muy cuidado, y ellos siempre te tiran tips para que te vayas animando a más. Unos genios! 100% recomendable
