Booking a beginner learn to surf lesson, you will learn how to select and catch waves with the assistance of a coach as well as how to pop up correctly on the board, how to fall off the board safely, and the basic rules of surfing etiquette.
Beginner / intermediate
A beginner / intermediate surfer can comfortably paddle through the whitewash waves on their own and are able to stand up and control the board for at least 3 seconds. Level two surfers are focusing on correcting the pop-up technique and keen to catch unbroken waves.
