JEFFREYS BAY SURF School



LEARN TO
WALK ON WATER

There are many exciting activities for holidaymakers to partake in whilst in J’Bay, but some of the most exhilarating must be learning how to surf, wind surf or even kite surf.  It has never been easier for visitors to learn to surf, wind surf or even to kite surf.

 Main Beach has the right kind of waves for beginner surfers to learn on.  There are no rocks and there are always decent sandbanks close to the shore, which means that beginners never have to venture deep out into the ocean to catch waves.  It is rarely so flat in J’Bay that novice surfers cannot catch small foamies (broken waves), which is all you are after when learning how to surf.

 It is also worthwhile for beginner surfers to link up with a surf school to learn the basics of wave riding and ocean safety.  At a surf school, you will be given a surfboard and a wetsuit to use and a surf instructor will take you into the water and make your first experience seem effortless.

 South Coast Surf School has been the surf school of choice for locals and foreigners alike.  In conjunction with Billabong, they will also be offering special lessons for girls who want to learn to surf.  Surfer Girl Surf School will be operating throughout the year on Main Beach.

Surf lessons

Dont leave J-Bay before experiencing the perfect wave

Surf school offers daily surf lessons Jeffreys Bay main beach  

Children and Adults welcome

All equipment provided

 A beginner surf lesson lasts for 2 hours.  The lesson is broken down as follows:

            1)                  Introduction
2)
                  Stretching exercises.
3)
                  Basic surf theory (including
safety instruction).
4)
                  Entering and exiting the water.
5)
                  Judging waves and catching
waves lying down on board.
6)
                  Learning how to stand on a
surfboard.

 After putting on your wetsuit and rash vest (for easy identification), your surf instructor will take you through some basic surf theory.

 You will learn about your surfboard, a leash, fins and top and bottom decks.  Then your surf instructor will work out which foot will be your front foot before you go into the ocean.

 At this stage you will go no further than waist deep water.  You will be catching white water (or broken waves, also known as foamies).  Your surf instructor will pull you into your first few waves as you learn to paddle your surfboard into waves yourself.  You will enjoy catching waves lying on your tummy until you are comfortable catching waves by yourself.

 Then the fun starts!!  The surf instructor will take you to the beach and teach you a technique to assist you in standing on your surfboard.

 After a few practice runs, it’s back into the water.  The rest of the lesson consists of you standing up and learning how to keep your balance.  After your first lesson you should be able to get to your feet and ride (even if its for a few seconds).

 Thereafter you could rent a surfboard and a wetsuit and carry on practicing by yourself or you could take another lessons and start learning how to execute turns and then move onto catching open faces (unbroken waves).

 The surf school also offers advanced lessons where you will be paddled out to an intermediate level surf break in Jeffreys Bay to catch “real waves”.
