SURFING LESSONS FROM BUDE SURFING EXPERIENCE
LESSON STRUCTURE
All surf lessons last 2.5 hours and run daily at 10am and 2pm (other times may be arranged by our head surf coach to suit best conditions).
We tailor our surf instruction to your ability so whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced surfer will be able to improve in our group lessons. We also aim to maximise the amount of time you spend in the water to give you the best surfing experience possible.
We provide quality equipment to suit all abilities and all sizes. All you need is yourself, a towel and a costume!
Our surf lessons are led by highly qualified instructors and we always maintain a low pupil to instructor ratio. This ensures each pupil gets more one-to-one time with the coach and improves quickly.
Below is a breakdown of what each lesson involves. Topics from each level can be incorporated into any group lesson. Please inform us when booking which level of instruction you require so we can tailor the experience to best suit you.
