10/10, the lesson was amazing and would definitely recommend! My instructor George was really friendly and chill, and had a great way of explaining everything. I've never surfed before, but with George's guide, I was quickly catching the waves and standing up for 10 seconds! It has been one of my favourite activities I've done in Noosa, and I can't recommend it enough!

Full description

Learn to surf on the idyllic Sunshine Coast at Noosa Heads, one of Australia's best known surfing towns. With warm water and a safe beach, it is ideal for learning how to surf the waves.


Start off with a safety briefing and some basic instruction on the beach before catching your first few waves waist-deep in the water. Back on the beach, take in some detailed instruction about how to stand up on your surfboard before finally paddling onto the wave.


Feel the thrill of standing on your first wave with the help of your instructor, who will assist by pushing you onto waves, and offering advice and support to everyone for the remainder of the lesson. Feel free to use the showering facilities at the end to leave feeling refreshed after an exhilarating lesson.
