The lessons were amazing. The instructors were attentive and encouraging and full of energy. All equipment is disinfected between lessons. If you don’t want to use their wetsuits you can buy one in Perranporth starting from £15. Please buy local as they will give you great advice re: fitting and how to care for your suit. The instructors give you a safety briefing and are constantly aware of the whereabouts of their groups. There are 2 RNLI jeeps on the beach, a lifeguard on a kayak and a lifeguard on a jet ski. We felt very safe. We had the lesson with my young daughter and I feel the instructors took very good care of her and she was safe at all times. I would really recommend this surf school.

After the weekend weather washout, I thought that I would check via Facebook whether or not that they were open. I messaged them on Facebook and via messenger. I had a reply within 10 minutes, and was able to reserve our 3 places. We had Gavin as an instructor, and nothing was too much for him. In fact we couldn’t of had a better instructor. He was so helpful to all of the group that were with him, telling us where we were going wrong and how to remedy it. I was even able to manage a couple of small turns, which certainly made my day, because to me they were massive. Both grandchildren also loved it being 11 and 15. The younger one struggled last year with the same sort of surf, but Gavin spent plenty of time with him. So much so that he was off catching the waves on his own. What an excellent surf school. Keep up the great work, and thanks for a great day.
