Northland
Tawharanui
& Orewa
Mount Maunganui
We operate in some of New Zealand's most beautiful untouched scenery, it's as though nature designed the Northland coastline with surfers in mind. Tiny coves, long sandy beaches, river mouths, point breaks, sandbars and reefs.....all within a short drive across 3 coasts.
The true beauty behind us is its mobility. Surf conditions change and because of our mobility we’re able to teach on nothing but the best Northland has to offer that day. Safety being a top priority as well as match your ability to the perfect waves for you!
Tawharanui Regional Park is set on a remote peninsula which boasts some of the Auckland region's most beautiful white sand beaches, rolling pastures, native coastal forest and regenerating wetlands. We are privileged to be the only surf school to have a concession to operate at Tawharanui. Come and join us for our weekend lessons.
At Orewa we run our School Education and Holiday Surf Programmes. Orewa is an extremely safe beach offering open spaces with long gentle rolling safe waves.
Mount Maunganui is one of the most popular tourist destinations in New Zealand. “The Mount” is almost surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, with a stunning beach on one side of the peninsular and the sheltered waters of the harbour on the other.
Our location at Grove Ave is a short distance from Main Beach, but offers quieter conditions and has exceptional sandbanks. We offer all types of surfing experiences including education for schools, surf lessons, after school surf clubs & holiday programmes.
What people are saying
I had an amazing adventure. Learned a lot and had lots of fun. I felt free and discovered that surfing is not just a sport but rather a way of living. The group was also amazing. Thank you so much!!
