This is where you will get an overview of the conditions, instructions, get to pick your surfboard for the day, review the session as well as some lovely pre- and post surf chat, coffee and tea, beer and prosecco.

Let’s be honest, the main reason we are all out in the water is to have as much fun as possible and have the best chance of surfing a wave to the shore. We carefully buy only the best equipment designed to make surfing as easy and as fun as possible. Our surfboards, whether you are renting surfing equipment or going for a surfing lesson are large and buoyant, this means they are as stable as possible when catching waves – don’t get too cocky though as having wipe-outs are a guarantee! We also fit every student with an all-year-round winter wetsuit to ensure they can thoroughly enjoy their lesson whilst being warm and comfortable.

The Giants Causeway is the only naturally created UNESCO World Heritage site on the island of Ireland and is considered by many to be the highlight of their journey along the famous Causeway Coastal Route.
