Across three or five days, you'll build your confidence in the water, starting with fundamental techniques before progressing to more advanced skills. Each session includes land-based drills to refine movements, followed by in-water coaching where you’ll put what you’ve learned into practice. Our instructors assess your ability from day one and tailor the sessions accordingly, making sure you receive the right level of guidance and challenge. Beginners will focus on paddling, pop-ups, and basic wave selection, while those with experience will refine their stance, turning, and wave positioning. By the end of the course, you’ll be catching waves with greater ease and control, setting you up for independent surfing. Location Situated in the heart of Newquay, our surf school operates at Watergate Bay, a renowned surfing spot with consistent waves and plenty of space to learn. The beach provides an ideal setting for all skill levels, offering gentle whitewater for beginners and unbroken waves for more advanced surfers. With dedicated parking, heated changing facilities, and on-site refreshments, everything is in place to make your time in the water as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Prerequisites No prior surfing experience is required. Whether you're stepping onto a surfboard for the first time or working on improving your technique, our instructors will adjust the course to match your ability and progression.

Yes! We're one of the only surf schools in the Newquay area with private parking for our customers and definitely the most spacious. Our safe carpark overlooks the beautiful Watergate Bay. If you say you’re with the surf school, you'll get a discounted rate. ### How do I get there? From Newquay Centre: Drive through Porth, then up the hill before the dip into Watergate. Look for open gates on your left, leading to "Watergate Top Field Car Park". From Watergate: Drive up towards Newquay. After the lay-by on your right, spot our shipping containers. Turn right into the car park entrance. Not driving? Take the 56 bus from Newquay to Watergate. It's a scenic 10-minute ride. ### What do I need to bring? For your surf lesson, you just need to bring a towel, flip flops and your swimwear. If you can get changed into your swimwear before, it'll take the pressure off using the changing rooms. ### When should I arrive for my lesson? You should aim to get here 20 mins before your lesson. If you're running late just let us know. Be aware that Cornwall can get very busy in the summer so it's best to leave early. When you get here, you can grab some food and drinks, and take in the view before your lesson starts. ### What if it's raining or bad weather? Surfing is one of the few family activities in Newquay that's rarely affected by the weather. We use premium, warm wetsuits that work year round and have brand new heated changing rooms. As well as the Hang Out cafe for hot drinks afterwards. The only time your lesson may be cancelled is if the winds are too high, the swell is too strong or there's heavy fog. If the beach has red flagged these, we'll contact you to rearrange or refund your surf lesson with as much notice as possible. Luckily this only happens once or twice a season. ### Can younger children take part in surfing lessons? Yes, we offer private surf lessons for children aged 5 and above. These one-on-one sessions provide a more tailored approach, allowing our instructors to give younger children the focused attention they need. Private lessons help build confidence in the water while introducing basic surfing techniques in a fun and safe environment. To book a private lesson, please see our other sessions below. Alternatively, contact us via the adventuro chat and we'll be happy to get you booked in. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/jet-form-builder/2729f1c2eb62fb786edf1af844bce511/2024/03/Screenshot-2024-03-19-180844.png - **Gallery image count**: 9 ## 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.
