Activity Code: KKLS100
Overview
Feel the adrenalin surge like so much blood coursing through your veins ... crack an unwipable smile as you stand up and ride a wave for the first time ... immerse yourself in the moment and be at one with your body and nature.
We teach you the safest and easiest surfing methods with a demonstration and practise on the beach first. Here we teach you about safe board handling and good water practises. Then it's into the water for 2 hours where we begin by pushing you onto small waves of about 1 foot. Once you're standing up and riding waves with our help, we'll teach you how to paddle on and catch your own.
Day 2: From here on you'll skip the demo and surf for 2.5 hours. Today we'll teach you how to do small turns.
Day 3: We'll work on improving your surfing, try some bigger waves and teach you how to ``take the drop'.
