What to expect
You'll start with safety basics and board handling on the sand, then move into the water. Your instructor will guide you through pop-ups and positioning, staying close to offer hands-on corrections. Expect to catch several waves—some will feel natural, others won't. The pace is yours; no rushing. Ninety minutes gives you enough repetition to feel the difference between a solid attempt and a wobbly one. You'll come out tired but with a real sense of what good form feels like.
Good to know
Bring a towel and change of clothes. The beach can be busy; arrive 15 minutes early to sort gear. Not suitable if pregnant or with cardiovascular concerns. Public transport nearby if you're not driving.
