Surfing Lessons Gold Coast
Surf in Paradise is a Gold Coast surf school that holds surfing lessons for adults of all levels and ages.
Adults who have a surf lesson with our surf school can learn to surf in one of the most ideal locations for beginners on the Gold Coast. You will only ever have a maximum of 6 people in your surf lesson and whenever possible we always try and separate the kids from the adults, so those loose limbed youngsters don’t make us feel like uncoordinated giraffes. To help get you surfing, we will provide you with free advice on the selection of surf equipment that is not only appropriate for you, but is also available from us at discounted prices.
Adults can choose from a variety of the following surf lessons:
Private Adult Surfing Lesson
1½ hours (1 person $100. 2 people $150. 3 people $200)
These are the ultimate introduction to surfing as the surf instructor can run the surf lesson to suit your own individual ability. You get the complete safety, advice and encouragement from a surf instructor who is beside you the whole time. We can specifically target areas to help improve your own individual technique. We find that clients who choose private surf lessons tend to progress at a faster rate. We also offer discounts on additional private lessons.

Our group surf lessons are a one off introduction to surfing where you will learn how to:
- identify rips and sweeps and stay safe in the water
