Surf lesson was great. Instructor was very friendly. However, can’t rate a 5/5 because Bookme made a mistake in not putting our booking through to Surf Academy. We had a minor issue when we arrived at Piha; we weren’t on the list!
What a great service! From A to Z it was a fantastic experience. The coaches were experienced, patience and fun. They really took their time with the land-based learning which made it so much better in the water. My 3 boys had a fantastic first surfing experience and will no doubt be back on a board these holidays. Thank you!
Had an incredibly great time at Piha surf school. It was my first time surfing and I took the 2h beginners surf lesson. Julles was the best instructor we could've had, really relaxed and easy-going, explaining all the relevant stuff about waves, safety, surfing technique etc. He got everyone of us stand up on the board in the water and it was great fun! would a 100% recommend!
The lesson was really fun and instructor was really nice and patient. The weather at the beach was perfect when we went out. Been wanting to take up surfing for a while and Piha beach was a great place to start!
Hi Kia, Thanks for your lovely review. We are happy you had a great time! From the surf team at Piha Surf Academy

So Much Fun
I have never tried marine sports until this time. The staff was very kind and the experience was fantastic! I could stand on the board. Highly recommend for people who wants to just try surfing. You don't need to buy the surf board and wet suits. No additional cost. Easy but Exciting! The wave was a little bit strong, if you afraid of water you'd better to tell it to the staff ;)
