Surfing equipment, including a range of surfboards, and high-quality wetsuits to keep you warm! Private surf lesson with experienced instructors. Individualised coaching and skill development. Optional add-ons for an enhanced post-lesson experience. ### What’s not included Transportation to the meeting location, so please arrange your own transport to join us. Personal items such as sunscreen and water, so be sure to bring these for your comfort. ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Is it cold? We – and any of our previous customers – would say no! The waters here range from 7-13 degrees celsius, which we admit is chilly! However, we provide super warm winter 5/4mm wetsuits (and boots, gloves & hood if required). ### What do I need to bring? We provide all the wetsuits and surfboards in our lessons so all you need to bring is a towel, warm clothes for getting changed into afterwards and some water! we would also recommend arriving with swimming costumes/trunks on as it makes it easier for getting changed. ### What is the age limit? This is suitable for ages 10+, but prior surfing experience and confidence in the water is a must, as this is an improver/intermediate surf trip. ### What happens if the weather is bad? If it’s a bit windy or rainy this won’t affect us however in the event of extreme wind or huge swell we might need to cancel/postpone. Same goes if it happens to be totally flat. However, we will always try and find a back-up location or offer another activity such as stand up paddle boarding. We will provide a full refund if its not possible – this is very unlikely. ### Do you have shower facilities or changing rooms? Sadly not yet! We have plans to hopefully make it happen soon though. Our seas are super clean & the salt is great for your hair/skin so no need for a shower anyways! ### Do I need to be able to swim? This is an intermediate/improver trip, so confidence in the water is a must. ### Where do we meet? We are based at Dunnet Beach. We will confirm the meeting spot around 5 days before the trip depending on the day's forecast conditions. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/jet-form-builder/85679fbdd725583501ee506974e648b9/2023/11/P1030282.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## 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.
