We’ll help you to experience the thrill of surfing!

We specialize in small private classes &  group lessons.

The Sunshine Coast is a beautiful environment to learn to surf all year round!

Our main concern is too much unprotected exposure to the sun.

At Caloundra Surf School Sunshine Coast, we work closely with the Cancer Council Queensland to make sure our students understand how to learn to surf “Sun Safe”. This is a very important part of our surf lessons.

As part of your surfing class, we will also provide you with free sunscreen and information about how to be “Sun Safe” on the beach and in the water.

Exclusive Council Permits

We have the exclusive Council permits to provide surfing lessons at the 3 best beaches around Caloundra, at Happy Valley (Happys), Dicky Beach and Currimundi.

This means that we can take our classes to the best location depending upon the conditions (e.g. tides and wind direction).

Surfing Queensland

Surfing Queensland are an entrusted association, committed to the development of this sport, and educating the public on surf safety.

The Cancer Council

Always Remember to – SLIP!  SLOP!  SLAP!  SEEK!  SLIDE!

Slip on your sun protective clothing

It’s best to enjoy surf classes in a rash vest, so please bring your own if you have one. But don’t worry if you haven’t got your own rashie, as we’ll supply a clean, fresh one for you to use during the lesson.

Slop on your sunscreen

Of course, it is vital to have good sunscreen protection before spending time in the great Aussie outdoors. It’s better to apply your sunscreen about 30 mins before the lesson, but we will provide you with free sunscreen from the Cancer Council Queensland as part of our service.

Slap on a hat

We also suggest that you bring a hat to wear while we’re doing our ocean safety talk and “how to surf” instruction on the beach before we hit the water.

Slide on sunglasses

You are also encouraged to wear your sunglasses while we’re doing our talk and practice on the beach before we enter the water to start our surf lessons Sunshine Coast class.

Seek shade

And when you’re planning on spending a lot of time at the beach, you should try to get shade from a beach umbrella or shelter, or sit under natural shade like a tree.
