Learn to surf

The beginner lessons take place in the bay of the Cove, the area nearest to the shoreline. The bay offers slow moving, knee-high, open-face whitewater waves, which are perfect for beginner surfers to learn, practice and have fun in a safe and controlled environment.

 

 

Winter Surf Safety:

Kids’ lessons can still run in colder months, but  when water temperatures drop below 7°C we recommend rescheduling for under-12s. Lessons for young surfers and adult beginners may be cancelled at short notice if temps fall under 4°C, and all surf sessions (including Reef) will pause at 2°C for safety. We monitor conditions closely and will update you quickly so you can surf safely, stay warm and enjoy every session.

We have limited bookings for children before April. If you would like to book for your child please contact us at info@lostshore.com

The improver lessons take place on the reef, on slow peeling open-face waves. The waves are approximately knee to thigh high and are ideal for surfers who would like to learn how to master the take-off, control the trajectory of their board and trim along the open-face of the wave.

Surfboard: We recommend using our softboards. You’re welcome to use your own softboard but it must be approved by our surf coaches. No hard boards.

Our Improver Plus lesson takes your surfing progression to the next level. Building on the foundations of the Improver lesson, you’ll move to our Cruiser Plus wave, offering a longer, slightly steeper face and more speed for refining your techniques.

During this lession, you’ll work on:

• Mastering angled take-offs to align with the wave’s face.

• Building speed and trimming more effectively along the wave.

• Beginning to link simple turns, working on transitions from rail to rail.

• Improving your wave awareness and positioning to catch waves confidently.
