Yes, we provide private lessons for individuals or small groups who prefer personalised instruction. To see the other lessons we have on offer, please scroll to the bottom of this page and take a look through. There's something for everyone! ### What if I have a medical need? If you have any medical needs, disabilities, injuries or special requirements, please let us know when you book and we can talk through how best we can cater for your needs during your experience. We aim to be an inclusive surf school. ### When and where should I meet you for my lesson? For surf lessons, meet on the beach by our trailer 15 minutes prior to your lesson start time. ### Will I be cold? The water temperature in the Moray Firth ranges from 7-15°C. We find our high-quality 5mm thick winter wetsuits keep our customers toasty, as well as gloves, boots, and hoods if needed. We've had no complaints! You should be warm and comfortable for the duration of your lesson with us. ### Do you provide all of the equipment? Yes, all the kit is provided for your lessons, including warm wetsuits and wetsuit accessories if needed (gloves, boots, hood). ### What do I need to bring with me? Please bring a towel, sunscreen, and water. We recommend you arrive with swimwear on (for under your wetsuit) as it makes it easier to get changed at the beach. ### I've got my own equipment, can I use it for the lesson? We’ve got everything you need here, but if you’ve invested in your own wetsuit you’re welcome to bring it along if it is suitable for the conditions and activity. We use quality 5mm winter wetsuits to keep you really toasty, and have gloves, boots, and hoods available. If you'd like to use your own surfboard, please mention this when you book so we can make sure it's suitable. ### What if the conditions are not appropriate for my session? The safety of our clients is of the highest importance to us and we will never run lessons in unsafe conditions. However, we do not cancel lessons when it's raining. We'll all be getting wet anyway and it can be a unique experience! We schedule our lessons around reliable weather & wave forecasts, however conditions can change very quickly and this can be unpredictable. The safety of our clients is of the highest importance to us and we will never run lessons in unsafe conditions. If we deem conditions are not appropriate on the day we will try to contact you in advance. In the very rare event that we have to cancel a lesson we will: Rearrange for another day / give a credit voucher for an equivalent future booking Offer you an alternative activity if conditions allow Give a full refund ### What facilities do you have? We have limited space for belongings in our van or trailer, however we recommend leaving your belongings in your vehicle once changed. We can look after your keys during your session. Unfortunately, we do not have changing facilities available yet, however arriving with a swimsuit on (for under your wetsuit) will make it easier to get changed. There are toilets on the beach, which are public toilets run by the local Friends of Cullen volunteer group. ### Will I be safe during my activity? All of our locations and activities are risk-assessed and all of our instructors hold lifesaving, first aid, and coaching qualifications. Your safety is our highest priority; you can rest assured that you're in good hands. ### How fit do I need to be to take part? Providing you are able to swim unaided and you have no current health issues or injuries preventing you from taking part in physical activity you can participate. We have a wide range of wetsuits to cater for all shapes and sizes. ### Is the beach dog-friendly? Yes, dogs are welcome at Cullen beach. However, if you are taking part in one of our activities, someone from your party will need to remain on the beach with your furry companion! Please leave the beach as you found it. ### How many lessons will it take me to stand up? There is no definitive answer to this question as everyone is unique. However, we hope to get everyone standing and getting a feel for the board in the first session. We suggest taking 4-5 lessons to get a comfortable grasp of the basics; improving on stability and control of the board, and getting longer rides! ### Can I wear my glasses in the water? We advise against wearing glasses in the surf in case they fall off! However, you will be able to wear them during the instruction part of the lesson on the sand. They can then be stored in our instructor's bag on the beach whilst you’re practicing in the water. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/jet-form-builder/2729f1c2eb62fb786edf1af844bce511/2024/04/Screenshot-2024-04-11-103553.png - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
