Ready to elevate your surfing game? We offer a tailored coaching experience aimed at those eager to amplify their skills, performance, and thrill on the waves.
As this is an advanced coaching session, we will tailor the session to your surfing goals. However, the key skills we tend to cover are:
The session begins with an initial water session to gauge your current ability. Based on this assessment, our instruction is then tailored to your individual goals and the specific maneuvers you wish to master.
An integral part of the coaching process is our video analysis, which not only refines your technique but also provides constructive feedback to further hone your skills.
Moreover, under the guidance of our qualified Fitness Instructor and Surf Coach, participants receive comprehensive advice on diet, exercise, and surf-specific instruction.
For those with aspirations of competing, we offer strategic training geared towards both local and national level competitions.
Join us at the stunning Porthcawl, Bridgend County, where the waves are inviting and the scenery is picturesque. Our prime location offers the perfect setting for beginners to learn and progress their surfing skills.
Our Surf Academy is based near the beaches of Porthcawl, about 25 minutes from Cardiff, but we offer lessons all along the South Wales coast. We'll go where the waves are!
The main beaches we use are: Rest Bay, Coney (Sandy Bay), Aberavon, and Southerndown.
We will send you the precise address and postcode of our meeting point upon booking. We are happy to discuss your preference of beach depending on your location, too! Feel free to drop a preference in the comments field when you book and we will do our best to accommodate.
Led by former South African Surf Champion, formerly sponsored by Billabong, our academy boasts global competitive experience. We are proud partners of Wave Project Cymru charity and specialize in catering to surfers with special educational needs and disabilities.
Whether you're after public group sessions, private one-offs, or detailed courses, we've got you covered. Our passion for surfing is palpable, mirrored in our top-tier instruction, unwavering customer service, and commitment to your progression.
You must be a confident, regular surfer, to partake in an advanced session.
We do offer both beginner and improver sessions as an alternative, which can be viewed at the bottom of this page.
If you have your own board and wetsuit bring them with you. If you don't, suitable ones will be provided. You should bring a towel and swimsuit to wear underneath the wetsuit. Sunscreen and a warm top for after your surf are also not a bad idea, and possibly a bottle of water and small snack for when you're done, as you can use up a lot of energy in the water.
Lessons can be arranged for any time or day of the week, subject to availability. If you don’t see a time or date which suits you, just send the adventuro team a message in the online chat, and they will help to facilitate and alternative date which works for you and us.
We are based in Porthcawl, but teach down the South Wales coastline. We’d generally go to the beach with the best conditions for your ability at the time of your lesson – we go where the waves are!
The main beaches we use are: Rest Bay, Coney (Sandy Bay), Aberavon, and Southerndown.
We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
