My two children had a lot of fun surfing with Troggs! In their 2-1 lesson and also in the group lession. As beginners they were really happy to have patient introduction and successful moments on the surf board. Thanks a lot. It was great! A. (13 years old) and T. (11 years old) from Germany

We had an amazing time learning to surf! My kids went last week and enjoyed it so much I had to try it for myself. Ethan and Albert were so kind and helpful! We had a blast! Can’t wait to get back on the waves!

We had an amazing group lesson with Ethan this morning. The instructors we met were all super nice and friendly. We had never surfed before at all and Ethan took his time explaining everything and giving us tips and pointers along the way. This was way more fun than we expected and had an absolute blast. Wished we could keep going and would love to go again! Definitely recommend!

Had an absolute blast surfing today with Albert and Ethan at Troggs Surf School! They were fantastic instructors — super patient, encouraging, and great at giving practical tips that had us up on the board and having fun in no time. Excellent vibes from start to finish, plus getting photos of the session sent through afterwards was an awesome touch. Can't recommend them enough if you’re looking to try surfing or improve your skills. Thanks guys!

I had never surfed before but at the tender age of 60 and with a daughter in Australia I thought I’d best give it a go before I head over to her. Can honestly say it was the best experience. Everything was broken down step by step and I got to practise on the beach before heading out. The waves were fairly strong this morning and it’s harder than it looks. The coach was very patient and encouraging and I did get “upright” the very odd time! It was great craic and I’ll definitely be booking Troggs again when next up in Portrush. If you’ve be thinking about it just go for it and give it a try!!🏄🏻‍♀️🌊
