Private Lessons

For those that would prefer the undivided attention of an instructor, we are able to offer private tuition. Private lessons are generally more appropriate for the advanced beginner/intermediate level of surfer looking to hone a specific skill; however, we can also offer private sessions to couples, families and small groups alike.

Lessons are entirely flexible and can be arranged at your convenience. However, please note that we require a reasonable amount of notice prior to your lesson, particularly during the busy summer period, to ensure that an instructor is available for you.

Equipment

We will provide all necessary equipment for your lesson(s) free of charge. We use quality soft foam surfboards for all beginners (or wherever we feel it necessary), as your safety is paramount, as well as to give you the best opportunity for success. We have a wide range of wetsuits to fit all sizes and shapes, so a to keep our students snug and warm throughout their session. We also have a range of progressive surfboards of varied dimensions to cater for developers and intermediates.

What to Bring:

As we provide all equipment for your lesson (unless you have your own equipment) you need only bring with you a towel and swinwear (to be worn underneath the wetsuit, so preferably nothing too baggy). Don't forget to slap on some high factor sun cream! (SPF 50 is preferable)

Please note: During the summer months (May-Oct), we are not able to offer wetsuit boots/gloves as they are not necessary for warmth. However, you may wish to have some protection against Weever fish (particularly in the case of children), in which case, you may wish to hire these seperately from Bathsheba Surf. Rock-pooling shoes (can be bought at Alcatraz/Bathsheba) are also suitable, provided they have soft rubber soles.
