Following announcements from Surfing England and Cornwall Council we are pleased to announce that we will be open for surf lessons from Saturday 13th June 2020 onwards.

Due to government guidelines related to Covid-19 this has meant we have had to make certain changes to how we operate to ensure we adhere to all guidelines. Primarily they are as follows:

Bookings: All lessons need to be pre-booked via phone, email, text message or what’s app and lessons will need to be paid in advance electronically.

Enrolment forms: will need to be completed online prior to the lesson for all surfers. They will include questions related to physical fitness and Covid-19 symptoms.

Meeting Point: We will confirm where and when to meet 24-48 hrs in advance of the lessons via phone, message, email, or what’s app.

Staggered Lessons: We will stagger any arrival times or departure times if there are multiple groups surfing. This will ensure we do not exceed government guidance in relation to group sizes and will ensure we adhere to the current 2 metre social distancing rule.

Hand sanitiser stations: will be available around the meeting point and next to the trailer for people to use prior to lessons and post surf sessions.

Equipment: All kit will be issued ensuring social distancing is maintained. You should then change at your vehicle / beach etc. On completing the session kit can then be returned to the drop off zone to be cleaned / disinfected.

Social distancing lessons: extra attention will be place upon maintaining social distancing between surfers / instructors to ensure we adhere to the current 2 metre social distancing rules both on the beach during theory sessions and within the water. This will mean a little more emphasis on self sufficient surfing in the water however, rest assured we will be on hand guiding you into the best waves, offering the best tips and pointers to get you up and riding but without the extra nudge or push to help you into / over waves as before. As soon as these measures are relaxed though, we will be happy to go back to giving you the extra push to help you catch waves as we always have done.

Wetsuits: will now undergo thorough cleaning using a mild disinfectant medically proven to kill Covid-19

Equipment: will also be cleaned and sterilised after every session to ensure it is clean for the next surfer

Covid-19 Symptoms: if you or anyone in your group / party has a cough, high temperature or loss of taste you should look to re-schedule your lesson

Travel: Due to government guidelines we do not want to be encouraging travelling long distances and please be aware that these guidelines stipulate that you should not be staying over anywhere but in your home.

We have taken guidance from the government, Sport England on the phased return of sport and recreation, Surfing England and ASI in making these changes. As the situation is ever changing we will endeavour to adapt to this changing environment as new guidance and science emerges.

In the meantime we look forward to getting you back in the water and going back to what we love …. teaching you to surf!
