Calling all big groms and mini groms, Surf Club dates for the Autumn Term are now set. After a super fun summer of surfing, what better way to continue the froth with weekend (or after school) club sessions to develop those skills, just as the seasonal swells start to kick in. Contact us to book your spot - places available at Bantham & Bigbury.

Fun in the sun for the final day of this weeks’ Summer Course!

Pre surf lesson fuel up courtesy of the awesome Mount Folly Farm milkshakes (available from the vending shed on the way down to Bigbury beach). The instructors were loving it! Reckon we might head up for a post surf Mount Folly Farm ice-cream as well (also at the vending shed!) 🥤🍦☀️🏄🏼‍♀️ Our What’s On page for latest availability has also been updated on our website (link in bio) 🤙🏻

This week has been truly glorious at Bigbury & Bantham and stoke levels have been very high - this grom was loving the long waves at the superbank (the dropping tide has been turning on with this small swell 🤙🏻) We’ve still got lesson availability at Bigbury & Bantham so if you’re keen for some warm waves get in touch

Did you know Discovery Surf School is AALA (Adventure Activity Licensing Authority)registered for paddleboarding? We’ve recently renewed our accreditation for another 3 years. One of the benefits of being with AALA means we can take school groups, which is great this week for our groups who are also surfing with us.
