Surfing with Fistral Beach Surf School & Hire Centre

12th June 2019

Fistral Beach, Newquay has long been regarded the Home of British Surfing and for good reason, it’s surrounded in outstanding natural beauty and has the most consistent surf in Cornwall. Could you think of a better place to learn to surf?

Thankfully the Fistral Beach Surf School, the only surf school located on the beach has everything you need for a day of shredding the waves. With over 20 years serving budding and established surfers they have the knowledge and passion to get you up and riding no matter your ability. Not only do they offer quality lessons, but they also hire out a wide variety of surfing equipment, from bodyboards to longboards and everything in-between, they have you covered. 

What Lessons Are Available at The Surf School?

Fistral Beach Surf School offers two types of lessons, group lessons and private. Both lessons are two hours long and the cost covers the use of equipment (that’s wetsuit, board etc) during your session. You will also get access to our changing rooms, lockers and hot showers. The cost does vary with private lessons being a little bit more expensive, but you will receive 100% of your coach’s time and have the lesson tailored around you. With group lessons they are generally mixed age (kids only lessons available in the summer) and range from beginners to intermediates. We guarantee that you will have a fun and fulfilling session no matter what lesson style you choose.
