Product Info

-What you can expect-
Experience a private surf lesson which is great for people who have always wanted to learn to surf or who just want to improve their surf game! Everyone is welcome (even first-timers) and this private tour is perfect because you'll be able to learn at your own pace with your professional certified instructor guiding you every step of the way.

Before your lesson, you'll be fitted out with a wetsuit and surfboard before heading down to the beach. Depending on your level, either go straight to the line up with the instructor or have an extended training session on the sand as you learn all the important aspects of surfing.

Your instructor will teach you how to pop up on the board, educate you about the ocean and end the land lesson with the most important part - safety. After that, you'll get to spend the remaining time with the instructor in the ocean.

After the class, follow the instructor to an outdoor public shower where you will be able to rinse off.
