Do I need experience to learn to surf in Cornwall?

No experience needed! 85% of our students are complete beginners. Our Surfing England Level 2 coaches are experts at teaching first-timers. Most people stand up and ride their first wave within the first hour of their surf lesson.

What's the minimum age for surf lessons?

For group surf lessons, the minimum age is 8 years old. We offer private family lessons for younger children (from age 5+) where our instructors can give extra attention and adapt to each child's needs and confidence level.

Do I need to know how to swim to take surf lessons?

Yes, we require that you can swim at least 25 metres comfortably. You don't need to be a strong swimmer - we teach in waist to chest-deep water where you can stand up. Basic swimming ability is required for safety.
