Byron Bay Surf School inc. Surf Camp Byron Bay (Byron Bay, Australia)

Surf Camp Byron Bay is the only surf camp on absolute beachfront in Byron Bay.

You stay in the lush, tropical grounds of Backpackers Inn, and surf every day under the guidance of our professional and surfing instructors.

Our campsite is connected by a short track through the sand dunes straight on to Byron’s legendary surf breaks, and the iconic view of Byron’s beautiful hinterland (great for sunsets!)

When you’re not surfing, independently explore Byron Bay’s vibrant street/surf scene and nightlife, with the town centre just 350 metres away. Surf Camp Byron Bay is owned and operated by the Byron Bay Surf School, a fully registered and licensed surf lesson provider in the Byron Shire.

Hostel- Surf Camp

The Byron Bay Surf School – operator of Surf Camp Byron Bay – is Byron Bay’s original surf school, teaching locals and visitors how to surf since 1996.

Over that time, we’ve taught from 3 locations in town – including the fabled Surf School House on Johnson Street, where surf dreams were made and people fell in love ..

But our latest location at Backpackers Inn on pure beachfront in town is our best position yet. It was over a few Bintangs at Bingin with the crew from Backpackers Inn that Surf Camp Byron Bay was born, with the vision of offering authentic, quality surf instruction at a Byron Bay’s favourite beachfront hostel.

Byron Bay Surf School is one of the few surf schools in town actually licenced to teach in Byron Bay .. which means no lengthy bus trips first to Ballina or Lennox Head first, away from Byron’s best learner waves. We teach on Byron’s beach, just a 1-minute walk through the dunes from the hostel and you’re ready to surf.

National Geographic recently voted Byron Bay the best place in Oz to learn to surf and one of the top 5 places in the world! Surf Camp Byron Bay makes it easy and organised, to experience the best life there is in Australia’s #1 surf town.

Two things to know:
1) 45 Seconds – the time it takes to get to the beach from the hostel.
