Yoga is an amazing instructor, he was very clear and made it so easy for me. As a beginner I was nervous and he knew how to make sure I was calm and gain confidence in the water. Very patient and pushed me when I needed it. I had a brilliant time and would really recommend!!

“Was an amazing experience! Thank you Louis, you were the best instructor! And thank you to the staff for being so nice! Went with my wife taking the family private class. Price included unlimited free cold drinks, towels, showers to rinse off, and 100+ pictures. Totally worth it.”

“Definitely the highlight of my trip! The instructors are amazing and supported us throughout the two hours we learnt how to surf! We expected a laid back bodyboarding session but were pleasantly surprised by a surfing lesson instead! The instructors were so kind and assisted me throughout the session. By the end of the two hour sessions I could stand on the board and let the waves wash me back to the shore (without any prior experience). It was really fun and I would definitely go again!”
