What Our Customers Say
Kevin C2025-01-31 I would give 10 stars if I could! Had an amazing mobile surf camp experience with Sam and Sorsha leading the way. Highly recommend. Sam is a living legend at coaching, I would say I was at a sort of beginner-intermediate level and there were surfers of various levels in the camp and he did an amazing job analyzing everyone's surfing equally and knowing exactly what to point out to each person to elevate their surfing to the next level. Everything was well planned out to get us maximum time in the water at great spots in the best conditions for us. The video analysis was so helpful - couldn't believe I was still poo manning it out there haha. This camp was in November and there were plenty of wetsuits and boards for everyone. I look forward to doing another surf camp again once the schedules line up to see how I've progressed. Thanks and hope to see y'all soon! Will Fisher2024-12-02 The initial lesson was well taught, engaging and enjoyable. However there were simply no waves when we went to try out the skills we’d learnt. After mentioning this we were offered a free surfboard hire which I took and enjoyed a few weeks later. All the staff have been kind and pleasant. Antoinette Thirgood2024-11-25 Excellent surfing lessons from Malcolm Jonathan Gormal2024-11-03 Cracking rental place. Good kit, well priced and really friendly atmosphere. Definitely going to come back. Neja Cunk2024-11-01 It was an amazing lesson. I was alone with the instructor, many thanks to him and a big compliment! He was very friendly, he gave me good tips and he was very motivational. Their wetsuits are amazing, i was not cold at all. Also their website and the whole process before the class is very nicely done. When I'm back in Scotland, I'll definitely be there again. Mhairi Gillings2024-10-19 My son has just completed his 2nd week of surf camp this year, he is always keen to go back and learns so much from the instructors, he'll be back! Josee Pimbert2024-10-18 My 7 and 9 year old kids loved the junior surf camp this week. They said the instructors were all really nice and helpful. Both of them managed to get up on their boards and had so much fun in the sea. They can’t wait to do it again! Wm Matthew Harvey2024-10-13 Highly recommend everything these guys do! Incredible people and best surf instructors I've ever encountered, would not hesitate for a minute to check them out Caoimhe McKearney2024-10-08 I had a beginner lesson with Lachlan yesterday. I have had a few ad hoc surf lessons here and there - Perth, Morocco, Tiree - and I have to say this was the most comprehensive instruction I have ever received. After a proper warm-up and a quick swim to acclimatise and suss out the waves, Lachlan took the whole group (the rest of whom had never surfed before) through everything step by step in a very methodical fashion, practising each point on land and in the water before adding the next. He explained everything very simply and clearly, yet still with a fair bit of detail - even though this lesson was at the same level as the previous ones I’ve had, I found myself picking up quite a few new tips and terminology. Thank you Lachlan!Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 263 reviews
