Great Experience. I'll Be Back.
I had a great time in the water with Aotearoa Surf School. The instructors were super friendly, welcoming and made the whole thing a fun experience. We had a diverse group, ranging in age from under 10 to 40+, with different backgrounds and skills, yet the team managed to ensure everyone was supported at their own individual level. I appreciated getting personal feedback, with some instruction and guidance to help me correct some of the mistakes I was making. Thanks Corne, Lilly and Nils for such a great day. I'll back in the water with Aoteroa Surf School as soon as I can for some ongoing lessons.

Not good for kids
not good for 7 age old kids. Arai waves are suitable for adults to learn beginner courses. Completely not for 7-year-olds. I think they should not teach 7-year-olds here. because they don't teach or take care of them. They not fit for children lesson.

The best surf experience
The coaches were very nice and they were really good at teaching us. I really enjoyed it. My first time surfing was so cool, I even stood up on the board lots of times. Harry 10 years old. I want to go back next weekend again!
