5.01 guest review of this trip
Reviews of this trip come first, then reviews of our other trips from the same spots.
I did the 2-month program and I didn't want to leave. I really improved my surfing and that made me love it more. the academy group feels like a little family and the vibe is really laid back. I made some really good friends and I definitely will be back.
Did this back in May 2022 at spot X, it was the highlight of my Australian trip. Couldn’t recommend enough!
Fabulous trip – highly recommend.
AMAZING surf instructors who really care about teaching you everything about surfing and guiding you in/out of the water!
Will definitely be returning 🙂
I was a little hesitant to sign up for a full month since I've never surfed before, but I ended up loving it. I wish I could have stayed longer! Everyone was very welcoming and friendly and I learned so much from the surfing instructors in my short time there. I'll definetly be back!
Legendary amazing epic surfing experience.
I did this course after completed 7 days surf&stay which is my first time surfing adventure.
I progressed from very beginner to confident surfer.
After that, surfing lifestyle continue, I bought some surfboards size range from 9ft to 7ft using for my own daily surfing…
keeping surfing till the end, and see what happens, take action depends on the situations, this is how we yeeeewww!
Came here while travelling with my friend Hanna! I had surfed a few times before but after the academy i feel like i progressed a lot. I really liked the surflessons each morning because theres no one else in the water and the conditions are always the best then. The instructors talk about the conditions and then there is some theory about the ocean or manoeuvres that you focus on that day. Everything together makes you feel more comfortable in the water and improved my surfing a lot. I loved the people in academy, it felt like a little family! One day I will come back:)
Stayed for a month, came with a friend! This was my favourite month in Australia! Really cool people in academy and overall in the camp as well! The surfing is great, really enjoyed the lessons every morning, always went surfing with most of the academy people in the afternoon and weekends as well! At night you can just hang out around the campfire or do the activities! I progressed my surfing a lot in 1 month and I made great friends for life!
Great instructors, a lot of good tips and individual attention whenever you need it. Stayed in our own academy house with a big group of people, good times! Parties every week, really liked the open mic nights as well. Will be back for sure!
The surf academy camp was awesome, we learnt loads and had a blast. All depends on your commitment, but regardless of progression, you're going to have fun for sure.
Yeeeeww!!!
