What's included

Everything's sorted.

  1. 01

    3 nights in two private houses

    Side by side in Porth, and just for our group.

  2. 02

    4 surf sessions built around you

    Filmed, with a coach in the water with you. We pick each spot to suit the conditions and your level.

  3. 03

    2 video analysis and theory sessions

    See what you're really doing out there, then leave with a written plan that's just for you.

  4. 04

    A sauna and cold water evening

    Sauna, cold dips and hot tubs at Saunasa.

  5. 05

    8 places, and no more

    With 2+ coaches, so everyone gets proper attention. This is not a surf camp.

  6. 06

    Breakfast and dinner, every day

    Your own private chef, with a celebration dinner on the last night.

Two houses, side by side.

Right next to each other in Porth, and just for our group. We surf Fistral, Watergate Bay and quieter corners along the coast, picked out by local surfers.
