 Holiday idea: Surf lesson :-) 

Hi,

Maybe a good tip for some people out there.

We stayed in Coolangatta and my son and husband took 2 surfing lessons last month and had a fantastic time, well they had one lesson and enjoyed it so much that they then booked another one.

They had never been surfing before and as stated in the information they were both standing on there boards in the first lesson. The first ½ hour are ‘on land’ and then the rest is 1 ½ hours and it costs $40-

The lessons were given by a wonderful instructor from the Gold Coast Surf School. No idea if I am allowed to give out further info of the exact name, so I will be careful and will not.

They also provide wetsuits.

Happy surfing! :-)

Good info roma.

No problem if you want to give the name of the surf school, location, website.

It would be helpful to others.

as a Coolie lover, great to see that someone was happy with the local providers, I do believe that I have recommended them previously.

Hi Jamo:

Ohhh glad I only wrote good things with now knowing you are looking over my shoulder!! ;-)

Marcel enjoyed it so much that he has chosen to do his talk at school about Surfing. He will also show some photo's and a film which I took of him. They are really good so he can show them proudly.

Maybe see you next year..

Hey Lilyana

thankyou very much for your comments as well.

we are very spoilt living here in Coolangatta. Coolie must be the best place in the world and so living and working here is sensational (you can tell i am very biased!!)

thankyou again and look forward to seeing you when you are next our way!

kind regards
