Our Reviews

Theresa Scheiber
" I had the most amazing day full of action, good waves and fun! The staff there is so helpful, professional and kind. Just with one full day lesson I‘ve been already able to ride the waves with the hard board! I would highly recommend the Jeffreys Bay Surf School."
Melissa Phelps
"Awesome family experience and the owner and his staff are very friendly and accommodating. We are definitely coming back for more."
Michelle Martens
We had a great time surfing, only the instructors were not so motivated, so we had to catch our own waves often if we wanted to surf at all. We have had a better experience at other surf schools.
Renée van Wyk
We did the beginner's course. We had so much fun!! Our instructor, Dillen, a SA surfer, was absolutely fantastic. Everyone was very friendly and engaging. I would highly recommend doing a course with them. Especially in the beginning of your holiday. You might find yourself wanting to learn more once the surfing bug bites.

Angelo was a great teacher, and it was so much fun catching my first waves! J-Bay is a great place for beginners to learn how to surf since the water is relatively shallow and the waves seem to be relatively tame as well (at least while I was there).
