Thanks Summer Surfers, Winter Lessons Available

Endless Summer

A special thanks goes out to all the surfers that attended Coastrider Surf Academy over the past summer surfing season.

We had a great year and so much fun with you all and hope to see many of you ripping up the waves at your local beach in the future.

Coastrider Surf Academy is open for lessons all year round even throughout the winter months, so even though the weather and water will get pretty cold, the water is uncrowded and the waves at their best.  Over the the next 4 months we offer private lessons 1:1 during the week and weekends, and also take group bookings on weekends.

So if you are keen to progress your surf skills over the next few months then give us a call and we can hit some nice cool water waves.

KEEP SURFING !!!

Jono and the Coastrider Crew.
