Surf Lessons

Barbados Surf Trips offers group or private surf lessons. Our instructor takes pride in her work and is passionate about passing on her love and joy for surfing.

You can learn how to surf at any age. We love to teach kids! The only requirement is that you are a confident swimmer

.

Learn to surf with a qualified instructor who themselves are expert surfers. Learn basic ocean knowledge — how to read the waves, the tide, the swell and the wind. Learn the fundamentals like paddling methods, how to “duck dive”, and how to get to your feet.

Barbados has a wide variety of surf so that you can start in safe, small easy waves  and work your way up as you progress in a fun, tropical environment.

The staff of Barbados Surf Trips will come to your hotel to pick you up and take you to the ideal spot to receive your lesson. The place will be chosen according to the instructors criteria, based on surf conditions.

Once on the beach, you will receive a theoretical lesson on safety tips, how to take care of your surfboard, surfboards components, how to get up on your board and correct paddling techniques. When you are confident enough, the instructor will proceed to enter the water with you and will always be by your side.

Your instructor will be constantly giving you pointers that will optimize your surftime instruction.
