Highlights

Take to the waves and learn to surf in Mount Maunganui - it's a surfer's paradise!
Our awesome instructors ensure a fun lesson while you learn to master the waves
Top quality board and wet suit are provided on the day
Small group lessons ensure a fully personalized experience!

Join us for a fun day out in the water learning to catch that perfect wave with a small group of eager learners. Our Aloha Small-Group Surf Lesson is perfect for beginners who want to learn with others & get specific tips along the way. Having a small group lesson allows the instructors to make this lesson more personalized to each individual.

We'll start the day with a 20-minute beach theory, where you'll learn ocean safety, paddling and pop-up. Then we'll get out in the water, get positioned with our small waves, and have some serious fun. Before you know it, you'll be popping up on the waves with a huge smile on your face.

Our qualified instructors are certified in first aid and have lifeguard qualifications so you can be confident and feel safe while having fun.

The teacher Quinn was lovely. She could explain everything really good and gave helpful tips in the water. I had a lot of fun and would book it again.
