The lesson will cover all the essential skills, including paddling, catching waves, and standing up on the board. Whether you’re a parent or a child, you’ll be encouraged to progress at your own pace. Our coaches are passionate about making sure everyone feels safe and confident in the water, no matter their experience level. After the lesson, if you’re still eager to surf, you can keep your surfboard and wetsuit for the rest of the day for just £15 per person, so you can continue practicing on your own or as a family. 📍Location Perranporth, located on Cornwall’s north coast, is the perfect spot for family surfing. The beach offers miles of golden sand and consistent waves, making it ideal for beginners and families. The surf school is located right next to the beach, so it’s easy to transition from your lesson to more practice. Perranporth is a great seaside town with plenty of local cafes and shops, so you can relax and refuel after your surf session, or just enjoy the beach and gorgeous views together. 📋Prerequisites No previous experience is required for the family lesson, making it ideal for beginners. However, children under the age of 7 are better suited to a private lesson to ensure the right level of instruction. For families with children over 7, this group lesson will be perfect for creating new memories while learning to surf together.

Please arrive with swimwear already on underneath your clothes to save time when changing. You should also bring a towel, sunscreen, and warm dry clothes for afterwards. Enthusiasm and a positive attitude are essential! If you have any medical equipment that you need to bring, feel free to bring it with you, and we'll ensure it's safely stored in a waterproof bag during the lesson. ### Is parking available at the surf school? Yes, the surf school is conveniently located next to the main beach car park in Perranporth, also known as Car Park on the Promenade (TR6 0JN). This car park is easily accessible and right by the beach, making it simple to park and head straight to your lesson. ### Where do we meet for the lesson? You will meet at our base, located in the old Men's Institute building in Perranporth. This is where you'll change and get ready for your lesson. Although we do not have lockers, we provide storage boxes for your personal belongings. Please avoid bringing valuables, but if needed, we can safely store precious items for you. ### What happens if the weather is bad? Rain doesn’t stop us from surfing! In fact, surfing in the rain can be a lot of fun. However, if the conditions (including wind or sea conditions) make it unsafe or unsuitable to surf, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know. We always prioritise safety, so if a lesson is cancelled, we will work with you to reschedule or offer an alternative activity if available. ### What is the minimum age to surf? We welcome children from the age of 7 for our lessons, as long as they are comfortable in the water and can follow instructions. Our instructors are skilled in working with younger surfers, ensuring a fun and safe experience. If your child is new to surfing, they’ll be in great hands! ### Are there any dangers from marine life like weeverfish? Weeverfish can be found in some areas, particularly in the summer months during low tide. While they can cause discomfort if stepped on, they are not dangerous. If you're concerned about stepping on one, just let us know, and we can provide a pair of boots for extra protection. Despite this, we still consider surfing safe and enjoyable! ### Is there somewhere nearby to get food or a drink before or after the lesson? Yes, Perranporth is a lovely seaside town with many places to eat and drink. There are a variety of cafés, restaurants, and shops where you can grab a bite before or after your surf lesson. Whether you want a coffee, a snack, or a full meal, you'll find plenty of options right by the beach. ### Do I need to be a strong swimmer to take the lesson? Not at all! For beginners and improvers, we only go out to waist or chest-deep water, so you don’t need to be an expert swimmer. We have had customers with little or no swimming experience, and they’ve still enjoyed the lesson. If you’re particularly concerned, a private lesson with one-on-one coaching could be a better option for you. ### Is the beach dog-friendly? Yes, Perranporth beach is very dog-friendly! Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round, although in July and August, they are required to be on a short lead in the main area of the beach. Past this point, dogs are free to run off-lead. It’s a great spot for your furry friends to enjoy a day out as well! ### What happens during a family surf lesson? During your 2-hour lesson, each family member will be introduced to the basics of surfing or have their skills refined, depending on their experience. Your coach will guide everyone through paddling, standing up, and catching waves. The lesson is designed to be fun, interactive, and suitable for all family members, regardless of age or skill level. ### Are there any age restrictions for the family lesson? Our family lessons are for children aged 7 to 16. For children under 7, we recommend booking a private lesson to ensure they get the appropriate level of attention and instruction.
