When Damon Beveridge had his vision for a surf school in Croyde, he took years of experience as a lifeguard, surf instructor and England Surfing Coach. This experience has been put into Surfing Croyde Bay, so that you can enjoy developing your surf skills in an amazing environment.
There are some fundamentals which are different to all other surf schools in Croyde.
Firstly we are located right next door to Parkdean Ruda. You can walk straight to the school in a couple of minutes.
Secondly, the teaching ratio is the smallest of any school in Croyde. On average the ratio is 4 students to 1 instructor, and this is capped at 6 students to 1 instructor.
Thirdly the surfboards and wetsuits you use are guaranteed to be modern, as well as suitable for you to learn to surf on. The surfboard will be correctly sized by one of the surf school team so that you get the most out of your surf lesson.
Finally the quality of staff. At Surfing Croyde Bay we are highly selective about our staff. All staff are selected for their teaching ability, approach to safety, and surfing experience. It is compulsory that all staff have extensive experience surfing in and around Croyde and love of people and teaching.
