Sharpen your surfing fundamentals or progress to catching green waves with a supportive, fun weekend designed for those comfortable in whitewater. Experienced coaching, small group lessons, and video feedback combine to help you gain consistency and confidence in the water. Over two days, you’ll enjoy focused instruction while connecting with like-minded surfers in a friendly environment.
Sessions begin with a morning briefing on equipment and techniques, followed by a dryside lesson introducing core concepts. You’ll then head into the water for hands-on practice on the Cruiser setting, where coaches provide real-time feedback to help you ride waves consistently. After lunch, video analysis and surf theory reinforce learning, while a second water session allows you to apply these new skills. Optional group dinner on Saturday gives a chance to socialise and review the day’s progress.
Sunday starts with preparation and a final dryside lesson, followed by on-water practice to consolidate skills. Each session builds on the previous, with tailored instruction ensuring you develop wave awareness and technical confidence. For those choosing the surf-only package, the schedule is identical, just without overnight accommodation. Coaches will be available throughout to answer questions and provide personalised guidance, making the weekend both challenging and enjoyable.
Situated just 10 minutes from Edinburgh Airport, Newbridge offers easy access via main roads and public transport. The wave pool is surrounded by woodland and canal-side paths, creating a tranquil yet inspiring environment for learning and relaxation.
Nearby towns and cities, including Edinburgh and Glasgow, make the venue ideal for weekend getaways. Onsite facilities include ample parking, EV charging points, and scenic walking routes to enjoy between sessions.
Lodges provide comfortable twin or single rooms, with single-sex arrangements for shared rooms when possible. Single-occupancy rates are available and preferences can be accommodated for groups or friends travelling together. Each lodge includes kitchen facilities for self-catering and communal areas for socialising, equipment storage, and relaxation.
Staying onsite allows easy access to all surf sessions and activities, ensuring you maximise your weekend experience. Lodges are conveniently located close to the wave pool, making transitions between sessions and breaks effortless.
Participants should be comfortable in the water and able to engage in dryside and on-water lessons. No prior experience catching green waves is required, but a willingness to learn and follow coaching guidance will enhance progress.
A basic level of fitness is recommended due to the physical nature of surfing, including paddling, wave take-offs, and repeated water activity. Openness to video feedback and group interaction will help you gain confidence and make the weekend more rewarding.
This weekend takes place at an award-winning inland surf facility featuring Europe’s largest wave pool, powered by cutting-edge Wavegarden technology. The venue combines safe, consistent waves with scenic surroundings for a unique surf experience.
Expert coaches deliver structured guidance, personalised feedback, and video analysis to accelerate your development. Beyond surfing, you can enjoy wellness areas, woodland and canal walks, and a waterfront café serving fresh food and drinks, creating a well-rounded and enjoyable weekend.
