We have very good experience with wow surf school. It was wonderful time and in short time we learnt really a lot. Liz is very good and motivating teacher. We would 100% recommend her school. It was amazing :-)

A+++ : Amazing, Awesome & Astonishing
Fist time surfing - lesson with Liz: wow, she is such a good teacher. She was so helpful, motivating and encouraging! Shame that I had to catch up my plane to go home the same day, because I would have loved to stay and do more lessons with her. If you want to get on your feet and try surfing: do it! And if you do it with Wow surf school, you will be surprise to realize how easy and fun it is! Thank you so much!

I'd recommend WOW Surf School for anyone wanting to give surfing a go.
Liz provided an excellent mix of safety, instruction and fun for all of us; 8, 10 and 48! The children were up and surfing in no time and with persistence, encouragement and advice from Liz, so was I.
So good we went back for a follow up lesson. Definitely not one to miss.

I had two surf lessons and it was really great. We had some good waves and after 10 minutes everyone was able to surf! That was one of the best things of my New Zealand trip! Thank you very much!

My 15 year old daughter and I enrolled in the five day course pretty much as novice surfers and by the end of the week we were catching most waves and riding them to the beach.
Liz is a great instructor - professional; fun, laid back and most importantly bloody good at what she does. Over the five days we watched many people taking just one or two day lessons standing on the boards and starting to surf - it didn't matter whether they were fourteen or fifty - Liz had them surfing.
