Lighthearted, affordable, and safe

Published on Feb, 2025

If you’re looking for a somewhat boring and uniform lesson where you spend an hour on the beach before you even touch the water, then this is not the lesson for you. Terry has been teaching for 35 years and knew the best time and location (watch your emails for the timing and be aware the drive was 30 mins for us - I wouldn’t book any other activities on the same day) for us as a group of beginners to get the most out of the lesson and the waves. When you arrive at the meet location you may think you are in the wrong place but trust the process. Terry is eager for everyone to enjoy themselves and catch a few waves (which we all managed) and he does so in a jovial, Aussie manner whilst keeping us safe. Speaking of, don’t be idle in helping out getting the surf boards on and off; he’s 69 so save his back! You also really can’t argue with the price which is far cheaper than competitors in Byron so if you’re just looking for a light-hearted day out with the goal of standing on your board for some waves then this is the lesson organiser for you. Come with an open-mind and a sense of humour and you’ll be grand.

Amazing Lesson!

Published on Feb, 2025

So much fun!! As a total beginner, Tez was able to get me to stand up multiple times on my own in just a few hours! Would recommend this to anyone who wants an authentic aussie surfing experience!

Great day out

Amazing experience

Terry was my teacher and he was amazing!! He made sure everyone was safe and having fun he’s amazing at what he does and I highly recommend to anyone! I went by myself and this trip is perfect for solo travellers he makes sure everyone gets a good amount of time surfing and it’s definitely such good value for money!!

Great surf lesson
