Good to know

Waves, wind, tides, and weather can vary from day to day, and your coach may adjust the session according to the conditions.

Standing up or riding a wave cannot be guaranteed, as progress depends on each participant’s ability and the conditions on the day.

This is a small-group activity, not a private lesson.

No previous surfing experience is required, but participants should be comfortable being in the ocean.
