Nice staff and a nice time in the water. The courses are good value and the instructors are attentive and playful. More

the surf lesson here was super thrilling and so much fun. The instructor- Stefan- was awesome. I wish we had more time there so that I could have taken another lesson. More

I have only taken surf lessons one time before. The first time was in Costa Rico so the waves were a lot smaller. K16 though is such a great establishment. They gave us all the equipment we needed and the most wonderful instructor you can imagine. He was very patient with our lack of skills and always made sure we... More

Had great fun with my daughter at surfing classes last week! However, the groups were bigger than advertised (8 people), which is a lot for two instructors. Previous Tripadvisor reviews on K16 were consistent about Stefano being the best instructor, however, even though he really is fun and great with kids, the other instructor was actually more helpful when it...

Took my twin 9 year old boys for their first surf lesson. The waves were a little fierce to begin with but nothing they couldn't handle. The instructor, Stefano who is Italian spoke great English, and his instruction and safety instructions were spot on. We went back several days later when the waves were less fierce and we all managed... More

I hired from these guys last week. Having read an earlier review (and lots of rumours about dodgy hire on the Island generally I was very cautious. They were great and rewaxed the board for me after I'd checked it out. There are more hire outlets close by than show up on an internet search. Thanks. More
