HOW DOES IT WORK?
For the perfect blend of surf tuition and solo experience, our Surf Lesson and Half-Day Surf Hire package has you covered. The day is both informative and flexible – and is a surefire way to see your skills skyrocket.
We’ll kick off with a two-hour surf lesson, coached by one of our highly experienced ISA surf instructors. With our small group ratios (one instructor to eight students), these lessons are designed to improve your riding ability and help build your surfing confidence. We will provide all the kit you need – so just bring yourself and a sense of adventure!
Surf lesson complete, don’t worry about rushing back with all our gear – the equipment is yours to keep for the rest of the day. Take everything you’ve learned during your session and use the ocean as your consolidation classroom until closing time. Catch some waves, grab some lunch or just chill on the beach – the day is yours to enjoy.
If you’re visiting Newquay just for the day, you’re more than welcome to use our surf centre as a base. We have hot outdoor showers, male and female changing rooms, separate toilets, secure lockers and a team of friendly experts ready to point you in the direction of several epic beaches.
CAN ANYONE JOIN THE SURF LESSON AND HIRE?
Of course! Whether you’re a seasoned surfer or a total beginner, everyone is welcome.
WHY NEWQUAY ACTIVITY CENTRE?
Our high street base is between Newquay’s Fistral and Towan Beach and in the perfect location to learn the basics and improve your skills. Atlantic swell wraps around Towan headland to reach our sheltered bay, leaving perfect waves and golden sand. All equipment – including wetsuits and surfboards – is provided along with changing facilities and safe storage for your belongings whilst you’re on the water, so there’s no need to fork out on any unexpected costs.
IS THIS LESSON FOR ME?
We’ve teamed up with our expert surf instructors to create a quiz to take the guesswork out. Take our quick What Level Surfer Are You Quiz to determine what level of surfer you are.
OUR EXPERTISE
Our Newquay Surf School is the longest longest running, launched in 1996. Drawing from his experience as the British and English Surfing Team Coach, each surf lesson package has been bespoke designed by company Founder, Rob Barber, to cater for beginner surfers and those more experienced surfers.
We have 3 sister companies, Women + Waves, Bodyboard-Holidays and Outdoor Activity Instructor Academy.
Our Newquay Activity Centre surf instructors pass through a 3 month long training course prior to starting work with us, in order to deliver our surf lessons. With over 200,000 guests passing through the centre, more than any other surf school in the UK, our experience has been gained organically and reflects in our endless positive results.
