ISA Level 2 Surf Instructor Course in Pembrokeshire

Our passion for surf instruction and professional development has spanned over 25 years, reaching from our roots in Pembrokeshire to global destinations like France and Bali.

Our dedication to nurturing new generations of surfers, paddleboarders, and beach lifeguards remains undiminished, regardless of whether we’re on a blustery Welsh beach or the sun-kissed shores abroad.

Leading our team is Dean, a seasoned waterman with a history of representing Great Britain in competitive surfing. He plays a pivotal role as a surf ambassador across the UK/Europe, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka, aiding national bodies in forging a solid framework for the sport’s growth. With a wealth of experience spanning 25 years in surf, SUP, and lifesaving training for all skill levels, Dean is equally proud of his collaboration with Disability Sport Wales, various community groups, schools, the National Trust, Pembrokeshire County Council, and international surfing organisations.
