The kit keeps you warm in the water

Winter Surfing — TripAdvisor

“As a newbie to surfing, the resort is ideal. I have had two beginners lessons so far and I’m itching to get back out. The instructors are lovely, informative, and supportive. The kit keeps you warm in the water despite the harsh temperatures, definitely use a hood! What a difference it makes.”

Pod was really excellent. Cosy and easy to figure out.

Surf & Stay — TripAdvisor

“Booked a Pod for 2 nights and 4 surfs. Pod was really excellent. Cosy and easy to figure out. Complementary tea and espresso was great. Everything clean and tidy. As an experienced surfer, I was blown away by how good the wave quality here is.”

You are not sat around waiting in the water

Beginner Surf Lesson — TripAdvisor

“You can do as many waves as you can within the 1 hour which is great because you are not sat around waiting in the water. You just swim back to the start after each wave you catch. I did 13 in the hour. The instructors help you get on the waves so you don’t miss any!”
