How many lessons should we book for a family holiday?

One session is the usual choice and gets everyone standing on the whitewater. Two or three spread across the week is where progress sticks — for adults that is typically where paddling out to unbroken waves begins.

What happens if the weather turns?

We watch the forecast closely and would rather move your session than take you out in a front. Tell us at booking if you have a spare morning, and a windy day becomes a beach day rather than a lost lesson.

Can the children surf while we watch?

Yes. We meet on a public beach and the instructor is in the water with the group, so parents can watch the whole session from the sand.

Is summer or winter better for a family trip?

Summer is warmest and kindest to beginners, with the smallest waves and the warmest water. Winter has the most consistent swell and emptier beaches, with wetsuits included because the water is cooler.

How is a family of four priced?

Family and group lessons start at three people and are priced per person, so a family books at the group rate rather than paying for private lessons each. Send us your headcount and we will confirm the price before anything is charged.
