## FAQs

### What equipment can I hire?

Visitors can hire learner surfboards, bodyboards and wetsuits in a range of hire durations depending on their plans for the day. Additional accessories including waterproof phone cases and dry bags are also available separately when collecting equipment.

### Are bodyboards suitable for beginners?

Yes, bodyboards are often one of the easiest ways to get started in the waves and are suitable for both children and adults. Many visitors choose bodyboarding for a more relaxed beach session or as an introduction before progressing into surfing lessons later on.

### Which beaches are closest to the hire centre?

Towan Beach is the closest beach to the harbour and can be reached within a few minutes on foot. Fistral Beach and other nearby surf spots are also easily accessible depending on the surf conditions. The team can recommend suitable beaches based on wave size and experience level before you head out.

### Can I hire equipment for the whole day?

Yes, equipment can be hired until 5pm, allowing plenty of time to explore different beaches and spend the day on the water. Longer or multi-day hires may also be available depending on availability.

### Is wetsuit hire included?

Wetsuits are available separately and can be hired in 1 hour, 3 hour or until 5pm durations to match your surf or bodyboard session. A wetsuit is recommended throughout most of the year due to Cornish water temperatures.

### Do I need surfing experience?

Participants hiring surfboards or bodyboards should already feel comfortable entering the water independently and understand basic beach safety. If you are completely new to surfing or bodyboarding, lessons are recommended before hiring equipment alone.
