The surf forecast may look a bit like this for the next couple of days but… it means there are LOADS of waves to be had if you want to learn to surf or hire some equipment from us! Alongside being in the safe hands of our qualified Instructors we now have the Lifegaurds back at Watergate Bay (@rnli_lifeguards_newquay ) and Polzeath (@padstowlifeguards ) for the Easter Holidays between 10am and 6pm. You’ll find them keeping a close eye over the beach, with the Red and Yellow flags set up for swimming, bathing and bodyboarding. The Black and White checkered flags for surfing and hard craft. If you’d like to book onto a surf lesson, hire some equipment or book onto grom surf club, pop down to see our team at either beach, follow the link in the bio or send us a message ! 📸 @beersargent #surf #learntosurf #learntosurfcornwall #bodyboard #surfhire #surfhirecornwall #surfhirenewquay #surfhirepadstow #wavehuntersuk #polzeath #watergatebay

Great news from the 1st April our Port Gaverne to Port Isaac ferry service starts, that’s today. Operating day and night to take away the stress of walking up and down the hill, jump on the ferry and nip around the headland. There is a high chance the @fishyfriendsofficial will be singing on board and you might even see #docmartin. Operating 25 hours a day ✔️ and you might see a mermaid 🧜‍♀️ #portisaac #polzeath #portgavern #april1st #wavehuntersuk

Today is the 200 year anniversary of the @rnli. Did you know that the RNLI was founded in a pub? Sir William Hillary’s vision for a service dedicated to saving lives at sea became a reality in the City of London Tavern on 4 March 1824. Over 30 people – among them aristocrats, clerics, naval officers, politicians, brokers, bankers, merchants and philanthropists - put their names to the fledgling RNLI at the first public meeting in the City of London Tavern. 200 years later, the RNLI continues to do what it was founded to do – save lives. We also still meet in a pub, to continue the tradition. Many of our team at Wavehunters are part of the RNLI, from shore crew, Beach Life guards, to Life boat crew and helmsmen. It’s an amazing organisation and we are hugely grateful to be able to work with, on a daily basis. Here’s a selection of photos from my last 20 plus years , including the last lift up to a sea king helicopter before they were decommissioned. As it says in our station “rush slowly”. Happy anniversary to the RNLI. #team #rnli #200years #portisaac #rock #padstow #polzeath #wavehuntersuk #rnli200
