“Brilliant surfing lessons with Jake – thank you so so much! The beach was completely deserted and the waves were perfect for practising. Water was not cold at all with all the gear on and I got so much excellent feedback and great tips. It was so useful to have the 1:1 feedback and I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended.”
