Ryan had three session over the week we stayed and loved it. The instructors were really good and got him standing up from day one. The surf lessons were the highlight of his week.
Cannot recommend these guys highly enough. We did surf lessons on day one and coasteering on day two. Reece was fantastic. Our boys thoroughly enjoyed both activities and we will be back. Harlyn beach is idyllic with a couple of great cafes and toilets over the road. The entire set up is faultless
I honestly had the best time at Harlyn Surf School! From the moment I got there, everyone was so friendly and made me feel really welcome. A huge thank you to Kendra for being such an amazing instructor. She was so patient, encouraging, and explained everything really clearly, which made me feel so much more confident in the water. She made the whole lesson really fun, and I caught way more waves than I thought I would because of her. I also want to say a big thank you to Will, who was brilliant as well. He was really friendly, supportive, and gave loads of helpful tips that made surfing feel much easier. He created such a fun atmosphere and made sure everyone was enjoying themselves. I’d 100% recommend Harlyn Surf School to anyone who wants to give surfing a go. I had such an amazing experience, and a massive thank you again to Kendra, Will, and the whole team for making it so memorable. I can’t wait to come back!
We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Harlyn Surf School. Tommy was an incredible instructor and did an amazing job with my 9-year-old daughter Grace and her best mate Winnie, despite some very challenging weather conditions. From the moment they got in the water, Tommy made them feel confident, safe, and excited to learn. His patience, encouragement, and enthusiasm were exceptional, and it was clear he genuinely loves teaching people to surf. The girls came back to shore absolutely buzzing with excitement, full of stories about what they had learned and eager to get back in the water. They are now completely hooked on surfing! 🏄🏼♀️🏄🏼♀️ We can’t thank Tommy enough for making the lesson such a memorable experience. He turned a challenging day into an unforgettable one and gave Grace and Winnie a passion for surfing that I’m sure will stay with them for years to come. Highly recommend Harlyn Surf School to anyone looking for professional, friendly, and inspiring surf instruction.
5 of us booked last week for a surf lesson and it was the first time for all of us as a family. We absolutely loved the whole experience. Alex met us and couldn’t have been more helpful in teaching us as beginners and showing so much patience. The weather and sea conditions were perfect which definitely helped and Alex made it fun for all of us as well as being an excellent instructor. We would highly recommend and definitely book again.
