GROUP LESSON REVIEWS ON TRIPADVISOR

“Soul Surfing – hands down the highlight of our trip…We surfed with dolphins, everyone catching waves, the whole group no matter the standard all raving about the fun they had. Couldn’t recommend these guys more. We left much better surfers too!”
Cam S, Belfast, UK
“Best group of instructors! I was so nervous to try surfing as it has been ages since I’ve done it, but so glad I did! The environment that our instructors set up for us was super relaxed so while we were aware of our technique, the ocean, safety, etc., we had heaps of fun.”
Paige S, Whistler, Canada
