If your kids have never tried surfing before and you want them to be introduced to it in a safe and fun environment then our surf camps are perfect. All our instructors are ISA approved and have Beach Lifeguard qualifications. In fact our 3 full time instructors have each life guarded on the local beaches for years.
As well as teaching your kids surfing and ensuring their safety, we consistently give them small talks on safety at sea and how to spot potential hazards. This gives them an early grounding for any time they spend in the sea in the future.
They are also guaranteed plenty of fun. We mix up our surf lessons with a variety of games in the water and on the beach depending on the kids. This allows the older kids that are keen to learn surfing to maximise their time in the water practising their skills with one instructor while the other instructor can ensure that the younger kids are occupied and having fun the whole time. We always operate within a specific kids comfort zone and never let anyone out to a depth that they are uncomfortable with.
We are well stocked with good quality Alder wetsuits of all sizes so no one goes without. Also, all our surfboards have soft tops and soft flexible fins to ensure safety. We have 7 ft, 8 ft and 9 ft soft surfboards so that we can cater for kids of all sizes and ages.
At TurfnSurf, we run three types of surf camps for juniors. In May, June and September we run after school camps once a week. All you have to do is drop your kid with their towel and swim suit at the beach or at the pre-arranged pick up point depending on what area you live in and we'll do the rest. Typically, we meet at around 5:30 and finish up between 8:00 and 8:30 in the evening. At this stage they'll be exhausted and probably fall into bed.
