FAQ

Semi-private surf lessons are a great option for those who want a more personalized surfing experience but still enjoy learning alongside a friend, family member, or partner. In these lessons, you’ll be part of a small group, typically consisting of 2 to 3 participants, allowing for more focused attention from our experienced instructors. This format ensures that each participant receives tailored guidance and feedback, while also benefiting from the group dynamic and shared learning experience. Semi-private lessons are perfect for couples, friends, or family members who want to learn and progress together in their surfing journey.

3. Shared Experience: Learning to surf alongside a friend, partner, or family member can be a fun and memorable experience. It allows participants to encourage and support each other, creating a positive and enjoyable learning environment.
