Wavehunters are the only surf school and surf hire facility on Polzeath beach.

We’re here seven days a week from 08:30 until 18:00 in the summer months (a little less in winter) and you can book our boat trips as well as surf and SUP lessons and hire everything you need for a fun day in the water.

Fancy something a bit slower? Try our morning Yoga Sessions, or to jump head first into your day, join one of our beach fitness classes, the only fitness sessions ON THE BEACH

Our sessions will go ahead whatever the weather however, in the unlikely event the beach is red flagged for safety reasons by the lifeguards or we feel that it is unsafe, we will postpone your session to a time that suits you or offer a refund.

Surf lessons are two hours long.

There is no definitive answer to this question as everyone is unique. However, we would hope to get everyone standing and getting a bit of a feel for the sport that we love so much in the first session. We suggest having a number of lessons to improve on stability, control, turning and length of ride.

Yes, we provide all equipment and leaving extra time before your session to get ready is recommended.

We are lucky to be able to run our lessons on Polzeath, as due to how flat the beach is we can teach throughout the tidal range.

Within a private session we have had as young as 3! However, we would recommend 6 or 7 is a good age for starting out. We do have an age restriction on our group lessons of 7 years old to allow the Instructor to spread their time more evenly across the group. During a private lesson we can accept any age. We also ask that a parent or teacher is available on shoreline for younger students.

We would highly recommend sticking to bigger foam boards until you have learned how to turn left and right on a smaller green waves. Moving onto smaller boards too soon can really hinder and hold back the speed of your improvement.
