What to expect
Expect to spend time on the beach first, where your instructor will cover water safety, board handling and paddling basics. Then you'll enter the water together. Early attempts at catching waves involve a lot of paddling and timing; your instructor will position themselves nearby to guide your positioning and help you pop up onto the board. Most people manage a few successful rides within the session. It's physical work—your shoulders and core will feel it—but the instructor paces things to match your fitness.
Good to know
Bring a towel and change of clothes. The lesson suits most fitness levels but isn't ideal if you have significant cardiovascular concerns. Pregnant travellers should sit this one out. Public transport is nearby if you don't drive. Service animals are welcome.
