Waves Surf School

We are not just any surf school…….Waves Surf School offers a surf experience a cut above the rest! We pride ourselves on being different to the larger schools… we are proud to specialise in teaching surfing for all ages and abilities. Just ask one of the many surfers we have taught over the last 19 years, many of whom return to Waves Surf School year upon year to develop their skills.  Whether you’re a beginner, improver, intermediate, advanced or require video analysis we can offer the right session for you. Our small student teacher ratios enable us to tailor the lessons to your needs. Our tuition offers clear defined learning pathways to take your surfing to the next level!

Located on the North Cornwall coast between Newquay and Padstow we are fortunate to be licensed by Cornwall Council to surf a selection of beaches within the vicinity of Mother Ivey’s Bay Holiday Park.  This allows us to find you the best waves on any given day. Book in with us and we will arrange the lessons where the waves are best for you!

Waves Surf School endeavours to provide you with the best equipment & great wetsuits suited to the water temperature throughout the year.  So whether you want group or private lessons on your own or you would like to share the fun with friends or family we can cater for your needs.  Come and enjoy the thrill of the ocean with Waves Surf School, whilst under the supervision of experienced surf coaches and beach lifeguards to ensure you have fun safely.
