What to Expect
Frequently Asked Questions
Short answer - it depends! The Supplier has permits to surf at several different beaches and breaks along the Great Ocean Road. This means that The Supplier will choose the best surf spot on the day, and what's most suitable for the ability level of the group. The Supplier has permits for gentle beginner beaches (such as Point Addis), fun longboard breaks (Urquhart Bluff), and open, more intermediate breaks (Fairhaven) to suit any level, so they can offer you progressions during your stay.
Bring something to wear under your wetsuit (bather/ swimmers/ jocks), a couple of towels, thongs (flip flops/ sandals for our overseas guests), a water bottle, and make sure you have at least one warm change of clothes (including a jumper or sweater) which are easy to move around in for yoga. We'll provide surfboards, wetsuits, yoga mats, sunscreen, meals, tents, and bedding. You can expect to receive a more comprehensive list of items to bring along in your booking confirmation.
For beginner surfers, the surf lessons will generally be conducted in waist-to-chest depth water, and you will have the option to stick in closer to the beach. Please let us know if you are not confident in the water so that the surf instructor can keep a closer eye on you. The Supplier only employs surf instructors certified by Surfing Victoria and Surfing Australia, which means they hold current surf life-saving qualifications which are updated every year. For those who are wanting to surf out the back/ unbroken green waves, we would want you to feel comfortable and confident to be able to move around in the water without a board as you'll be out a bit deeper.
Awesome question! It depends on the day, but usually, it will be something relatively simple and wholesome. The food served is always nourishing and plant-based (vegan). Other dietary requirements can be catered for. Just let The Operator know when booking.
Short answer - it depends on your unique situation.
All guests need to be fully autonomous as you'll be left to your own devices for large periods of time.
If you require a carer to be with you to meet this requirement, The Supplier can arrange a "carer price" that covers their shared accommodation with you and meals for your chosen camp. They will be provided with a wetsuit to use free of charge so they can assist you in the water during your surf lessons, and they'll be expected to be responsible for your well-being at all times.
The Supploer doesn't have any specialised surfing equipment, nor the number of staff required to fully assist and provide special treatment in the water. If you believe that you could make a good go of it without extra help in the water, and with a standard surfboard, you are welcome to come along. You'll also need to be able to get in and out of camp beds which are low to the ground in a tent, and be able to get in and out of a wetsuit.
There is a wheelchair-accessible cabin onsite that may be available for an upgraded price, however not all beaches have ramps. Please contact The Operator and let them know what your situation is and any suggestions you may have.
