  • 5Fantastic experience.

    Had a 2hr surf lesson with Zach. Whole experience was seamless. Met with Zach at the surf shop. He was very friendly and made me feel welcome. There are facilities to get changed, then a small walk to the beach. Conditions were great for a beginner. Zach explained everything and was very helpful. Had a great time and will certainly use them again when I return next year. Thanks again Zach.

    Fantastic experience for a first time surfer 🏄‍♂️ My instructor James was very informative and very helpful during the session. I was quite nervous to begin with but James really put me at ease! It was an exhilarating experience! I would definitely book with this company again! Thanks James & Amy for the encouragement 🙏

    James took us surfing. We had great instruction on how to surf as beginners and we're all popping up on the waves by the end of the session. We had a great time!

About Newquay

Newquay is a surf town and seaside resort on Cornwall's north coast, with long Atlantic beaches, a working harbour and cliff-top walks.

Newquay sits on Cornwall's north coast, where Atlantic swell rolls onto a string of sandy beaches. Fistral Beach, facing west, is the town's famous surf beach, and Towan, Great Western and Lusty Glaze are smaller coves between the headlands. The harbour holds fishing boats and the Huer's Hut, a whitewashed lookout from which watchers once signalled the arrival of pilchard shoals.
