Camps & Courses – Breakers Surf

We Do Things Differently

Remember that feeling when you’re finally getting the hang of skiing, surfing, or snowboarding, only for the holiday to end just as you’re making real progress? The cycle of taking two steps forward and one step back can be frustrating. At Breakers, we’re here to change that.

That’s why we offer a minimum of a 2-week camp, ensuring your improvement and progress are unmatched.

We also know that once you’re here, you’ll wish you had booked a longer stay. So we’ve also designed a 5-week camp for those who want to make significant strides forward.

And for those who never want to return to the “real world,” we offer a 7-week instructor course. Live the rest of your summers in paradise, honing your skills and teaching others.

Join us at Breakers and break free from the cycle!

What is the difference between a Class and a Lesson?

Lesson: 4-5 Person Groups with the same instructor for the whole week, ensuring a personalised and consistent plan.

A class is a supervised period in the ocean, where you can ask the instructor any questions or for tips, but without the intensity of a lesson. Classes are larger than a lesson.
