If your kids would like to experience surfing and have some fun, a give it a go beginners surf lesson is the way to go, during this lesson kids will learn about the parts of the surfboard and how the surfboard works, how to correctly lie on the surfboard, paddle and catch waves and of course,..... how to stand up and surf a wave.

Kids surfing lessons Main Beach

All beginners surf lessons are conducted in shallow water and catching white wash waves. Kids are able to stand with their feet on the bottom at all times and they are not taken out far where the waves are bigger and more powerful. The surfboards that are provided are known as soft boards or foamies, they are specially designed beginner surfboards which make catching waves very easy and assist people trying to surf for the first time. Kids love them because they are made of soft foam and rubber which gives them extra confidence that the surfboard won't hurt them if they collides with it.

The 1st Wave Surf School runs private group surfing lessons for kids on the weekends and surfing programs on the school holidays. Many kids join a few lessons over the school holidays and have been doing so for years which increases their skill level and confidence as they grow. The 1st Wave Surf School surfing programs are a pay as you go lesson, you do not need to sign up for lengthy programs or commit to 4 or 8 weeks. If the kids have fun and want to surf again you simply just book them into another lesson.

Kids surfing lessons are not just about surfing a wave and having fun, there is also a serious component of the lesson which is surf safety. Every surf lesson includes a detailed surf check and explanation of the surfing conditions. Kids will learn about rips, currents, sandbanks, gutters, waves, tides, wind, weather, marine creatures, sand dune formation plus sun safety and beach awareness. Many of these topics they might have discussed at school but during a surfing lesson we look at it in a practical way. This surf safety education is a valuable life skill for kids that grow up near the beach or regularly visit on weekends or school holidays.

Kids surfing lessons are great fun, but a surfing birthday party is an amazing experience. When you get a group of friends all sharing their first surfing experience it is very special. The kids have so much energy and all want each other to achieve and surf a great wave and there is so much laughter as they wipeout, bump into each other and surf waves together. Parents love it as it is a healthy and active experience which provides and introduction to an activity which they may continue with for the rest of their lives.
