Experience a personalised surf session in Newquay with one-to-one attention from expert instructors. Ideal for beginners, intermediate, or advanced surfers, these private lessons focus entirely on your goals, letting you progress at your own pace while enjoying the waves.
Your lesson begins at the surf school, where you’ll be fitted with a wetsuit and allocated a high-quality surfboard. Instructors will give a safety briefing and introduce essential surfing terminology, ocean awareness, and etiquette tailored to your experience level.
After a lively warm-up on the beach, you’ll receive individualised tuition. Beginners will start with prone riding and popping up, while more experienced surfers can work on advanced techniques. Each session is adapted to your pace, ensuring the maximum amount of progression in a safe, supportive environment.
Throughout the lesson, the instructor provides continuous guidance and skills analysis, helping you understand and refine your technique. By the end, you’ll have new surfing skills, boosted confidence in the water, and personalised tips for future sessions.
Lessons are held on Newquay’s main beaches, including Fistral Beach and other town beaches. These locations provide excellent conditions for all levels, with beginner-friendly waves and plenty of space to practise.
The surf school itself is conveniently located near the beaches and equipped with heated changing rooms, showers, secure lockers, and friendly staff to ensure a smooth experience. Its modern facilities make preparing for and finishing your session easy and comfortable.
No prior surfing experience is required, though participants should be comfortable in the water and able to swim.
The lesson is suitable for all ages from 3 upwards, and the session is tailored to your experience level, whether you’re a first-timer or looking to refine your technique.
The surf school is a certified Surfing England Centre of Excellence with highly-trained instructors and modern facilities. Lessons are designed by British Team Coach Rob and multiple British Champion Johnny, ensuring expert tuition.
With a focus on personalised coaching and progression, participants benefit from tailored instruction, skills analysis, and support throughout. Private lessons deliver a safe, enjoyable, and highly productive surfing experience.
This private lesson is suitable for all levels. Our surf coaches are experts and can take you from novice to superhero surfer. Your private lesson will be completely bespoke and tailored to you, your experience level, and any skills/techniques/goals you are looking to develop on.
Every surfing lesson is two hours long. After arriving at the centre, you’ll be provided with a wetsuit and surfboard. The two hours will begin when you’ve finished changing and are ready to hit the beach! If you’d like to stay down at the beach after your two-hour lesson for the remainder of the day, you can book one of our Surf Lesson and Hire Days and keep hold of the gear. If you want to book this instead, scroll down to the bottom of this page to book.
All our Instructors are fully qualified Beach and Surf Safety Lifeguards and trailblazing ISA awarded surf instructors. They’ve undertaken extensive First Aid training and we endeavour as an Activity Centre to regularly train our staff so they have experience in all weather and water conditions. Every instructor must have years of personal experience in the water and we also work in close partnership with the RNLI presence on every beach to ensure your safety in and out of the water.
Yes! Surfing is a year round activity, you can even surf your way into New Year!
All our surfing instructors wear exactly the same equipment as you and will also take a First Aid Kit in case of minor injuries on the beach. In the unlikely event of a serious incident occurring during a surfing lesson, the RNLI beach lifeguards will be on hand to respond and assist your surfing instructor.
If you have your own suit please bring it along but wait until you’ve spoken with our instructors before putting it on. Some wetsuits will be too thin for certain weather and water conditions.
All you need to bring is your swimwear and a towel. We will provide you with everything else!
If you have any medical needs, injuries or special requirements, just give us a ring and we can talk through how best we can cater for your needs during your surfing experience!
Surfing requires a basic level of fitness and it certainly gets the heart pumping, but you don’t have to be an athlete.
We ask that everybody who takes part in our surfing experiences can swim a minimum of 50 metres. However, during a beginner session there is no need to go any deeper than waist depth water as you’ll be practicing in broken waves!
The beach is only a 5 minute walk from our activity centre and easily accessible for those not wishing to take part in the surfing lesson. Having said that, we would love you to get involved and will go at your pace!!
We strongly advice against wearing glasses in the surf in case they fall off! However, you will be able to wear them during the instruction part of the lesson on the sand. They can then be stored with our first aid kits on the beach whilst you’re practicing in the water.
Surfing takes a lot of practice to get the hang of, but once you’ve got the basic skills they’re easy to build on. If you wish, you can hire our equipment after the session to keep practicing and building on the techniques covered in your lesson.
We both loved it , the instructor was a gentleman . Clear , concise instructions and very helpful . Can’t remember his name sorry , very tall with long hair
It was brilliant- wish it could've been longer (a half day, for example, to explore further afield). Harrison was our guide, and he set the perfect amount of challenge to relaxation. Very knowledgeable about the area, pirate/tea caves and local animal life. We were also asked in advance if we…
Jamie was a good instructor but a bit disappointed with the time snorkeling and not seeing anything. The sighting of the seals and info about the coast was great
Had a fantastic time, the instructors were great and would definitley do again in the future.
Everyone was so friendly. My crew leader Alex was really supportive and encouraging as I am not an avid swimmer and so easing my way into kayaking and coasteering was a breeze. The team back at their headquarters were amazing ... keeping my baggage safe as I toured and even…
Staff are very helpful! My boyfriend, dad and uncle really enjoyed this. They saw a playful seal ❤️ would recommend!
We had a really good time with Heath today. He showed us all the safety information and kept checking we were all okay. Instead of just staying out snorkelling he showed us some caves and told us about the history and cool knowledge about the caves and rocks. Had a…
We had an amazing time with heath. He was so lovely and gave us a bit of history as we went along. Very caring and made sure we had a fab time
