Had a great time in the water, learning the basics of surfing and managing to actually achieve a few of them! The instructor was friendly and patient, attending to everyone in the group and making sure we were all safe, happy and involved. He explained things clearly on the sand first, and then helped to make sure we all achieved something in the water. It's described as a strenuous activity, and it certainly requires stamina to keep hauling yourself out of the water onto the board, but don't be put off by that. You can work at your own pace, so lack of fitness isn't a barrier to enjoying the experience. We enjoyed a few breathers on the sand between attempts at surfing, and this wasn't a problem. Shout out to Charlie the photographer, too, who somehow managed to take some photos that made it look like we spent more time on the boards than wiped out. Haha! All good fun. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys being in the sea.
