We aim to give you the best possible experience on the water! Here are a few things to keep in mind about the surf sessions:
1. Weather Considerations: Nature sets the pace, and we follow her lead! Occasionally, conditions like high winds or rain may adjust our schedule slightly to keep you safe and ensure great waves.
2. Tide Timing: We plan your sessions around the best tides for surfing, but since tides can shift, there may be small adjustments to make sure you’re hitting the waves at the perfect time.
3. Group Dynamics: We match groups by skill level and the ocean’s mood. If we need to adjust times to give you the safest, most enjoyable experience, we’ll keep you updated!
4. Instructor Availability: Our instructors are dedicated to your experience! During busy times, we may adjust timings to ensure each group has the best attention.

6. Timely Communication: If we need to shift your session’s timing, including any last-minute changes, we’ll reach out as early as possible by phone or email, so you can plan comfortably.
7. Arrive Ready to Go: Please plan to arrive about 15 minutes before your session to check in and get ready. That way, we can keep the day running smoothly and give you the best experience possible!
8. Fitness Requirement: For surfing, you’ll need to carry a 15 kg surfboard over a 300-metre walk to the surf point. You’ll be responsible for carrying and handling your surfboard, so we expect a basic level of fitness, flexibility, and stamina, as well as comfort in the ocean.
