What a great day! Matt planned and delivered the ideal day for my experience level and ability. The route visited an area of the coast I loved but wouldn’t have the confidence to visit myself and we had a great time.




Under the guidance of the experienced and passionate Matt, these surf kayak coaching sessions are tailored to meet your individual paddling goals, welcoming everyone from complete beginners to advanced surf kayakers.
Matt's surf kayak coaching is meticulously structured for a comprehensive and enjoyable learning experience.
Beginners can start with our sit-on-top kayaks, perfect for an introduction to surf kayaking and reducing the stress of capsizing.
For more experienced paddlers, we offer a range of specially designed surf kayaks, enhancing your experience in wave riding.
The sessions include:
Whether you're seeking an introduction to surf kayaking, aiming to boost your confidence in the waves, or looking to tackle more challenging conditions, just let Matt know your goals when booking, and he'll customise the session for you.
Matt runs sessions in various locations around South West Cornwall, including Hayle River Mouth, Praa sands, Sennen and Mounts Bay.
Based on your experience level and session goals, Matt will recommend the best location. Each chosen site offers different challenges and beauty, ensuring a unique experience every time.
No previous surf kayaking experience is needed for beginners. For more experienced kayakers, sessions are adjusted to match your skills and objectives. Feel free to bring your own gear, or equipment can be provided free of charge (except wetsuits and footwear).
With Matt's surf kayak coaching, you embark on an adventure that blends skill-building with the excitement of wave riding. His approach is not just about mastering techniques; it's about embracing the joy of surf kayaking, creating lasting memories, and connecting with the ocean in a thrilling way. Matt's extensive experience and dedication to personalised coaching ensure you're in the best hands for your surf kayaking journey!
