Meet your instructor at the designated Surfers Paradise location 20 minutes before your lesson. After suiting up in a wetsuit or rash shirt and selecting your ideal board, you’ll step onto the golden sands of this world-renowned beach.
Begin with a safety briefing and a quick rundown of surfing basics. Then, head into waist-deep water to catch your first waves, feeling the ocean energy beneath you. After your initial attempts, head back to shore for a land-based technique session focused on standing up on the board. Then it’s back into the water to test your new skills with your instructor right beside you.
The experience is designed for beginners, and many guests stand up on their very first lesson. Whether you manage it or not, expect lots of laughs, splashes, and a serious adrenaline rush.
Trent and Taj were so lovely, and never gave up on me. I even managed to stand up!
Great fun but a lot easier to stand up with the board on the beach!!
Meet at shop 26A in the Paradise Center, next door to Hungry Jacks, just off the beach end of Cavill Avenue, not far from the famous Surfers Paradise sign.

Loved every minute was such good experience , the instructors were so helpful and knowledgeable and would highly recommend
Dan and Taj were our instructors and they were both outstanding. From the minute we turned up they were welcoming and chatty and made us feel at ease about trying something completely new. They explained everything so clearly and made it fun too. We’re so incredibly glad we went with this company for our first lesson and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning to surf! Thank you guys!!
Staff were great – they had Kobe up on a couple of awesome waves
The operator company and its people -Owners, trainers/guides were amazing. The lessons were simple and easy to understand. enjoyed the session.
amazing experience, the instructors lead you really well and help you out during the lesson exactly as you’d want them to, overall just a lot of fun and if you want you’d be able to purchase great pictures at a fair surcharge
