Our awesome instructors will help you get to grips with those all-important surf basics:

Our surf lessons run daily from Omaha Beach and are organised around the tides; giving you the best possible conditions to surf in.

Surf lessons are run at a relaxed pace and include a pre-surf stretch warm up session, beach based training and lots of in water practice time.

We keep our group lessons small and instructor to surfer ratios conservative, which enables our dedicated instructors to provide plenty of in-water support and feedback.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I get seasick on Beginner Surf Lesson at Te Arai Beach?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
