Mark is great! Jose and I had our second surf lesson with Mark and we found it was not only super good fun, but he boosted our confidence surfing and helped us develop a better technique. Thanks!! Would definitely recommend to anyone no matter their level!
Mark is an excellent teacher I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. He had a group of 6 aged from a young teenager to me at 62 years old, all of us first time surfers except the youngest. Mark was able to keep everyone engaged and we all had a great time in the surf under Marks watchful eye. If you're looking for a great surf school look no further, this one is fantastic.
Marc was amazing! It was just me, my friend and Marc and we've been taught surfing before, but he was more forthcoming and explained it better than others! He was patient with us and took a wee break in between with us to show us what to do better cause he's been attentive and afterwards it worked out even better. Thank you so much, it was an amazing experience!
Incredible surf teacher thanks to him for his advice and his good humour! We had a lot of fun! I strongly advise! Thanks

Excellent
Really good concise lesson. I was told a range of things about the board, safety and how to stand and turn. We then went out and I was able to stand first try and could turn. Highly recommended. I feel competent enough to go out and develop my skills solo
