      Wonderful Experience
      Wonderful experience with Walking on Waves, which was a recommendation from a colleague. We did a two hour group session and had so much fun. Great interaction from the staff and a special shout out to Frank. My 12 year old smashed it, and although his Mum couldn’t keep up, I loved every minute of falling off. Thank you. We will definitely return.

      Super one2one surf lesson
      Had a 90 minute one2one lesson with Jimmy, and it was excellent. Not having surfed for 13 years this was the perfect way to get back on a board. Jimmy gave me really good feedback and encouragement after each wave which accelerated the learning.

      Really enjoyable session - learned heaps
      Such a great experience. We had a private lesson with Jack and we all came on so much with his patient and encouraging support. Strongly recommend walking on waves to help you progress with your surfing.

      Great lesson
      Visited earlier in the month with a friend for a group surf lesson. We have had a few in the area but I have to say, hand on heart that the session we experienced with Enrique was certainly Miles above all the rest. He was patient, fun and extremely knowledgeable in the subject. Not only did he have my friend standing for the first time he also got him mastering jumping and turning which was a huge confidence boost! What I loved was that we also learnt a lot in regards to the waves themselves and what to look out for. I genuinely can't recommend this place enough and will certainly be rebooking... Only thing to note is there is no changing room, however toilets and shower are directly opposite so no issues for us personally

      Would recommend, as we return every year!
      Another fantastic time with walking on waves! Jack & the team provide a warm & friendly welcome that make you feel like you are a friend/family! Jack first taught my son to surf, but we still return every year to progress & add a little focus & fun to our stay. Thanks as ever to Jack, Jimmy, Toby & all the team. Personal & expert tuition for everyone regardless of their ability. Saunton is also a wider beach than Croyde, so doesn't feel so crowded even on busier days. We enjoyed some great conditions (note, despite surfline forecasts which were not always as accurate, especially compared to magic seaweed).

      Fantastic surf school
      We have used Walking on Waves for our School Groups on a number of occasions and they have been absolutely brilliant. We had 4 sessions with Jimmy and Millie over the course of the last weekend and the kids had a fantastic time, were all up and surfing in the first session and progressing to turns and riding along the wave by the end of the final session. All of the children went away with a huge sense of achievement and really pleased with their new-found skills. We can't wait to return later in the year for another weekend. Thank you!

      Great team.
      Kids had a great time learning to surf. Toby was patient, encouraging and very friendly and had the kids standing in no time. The weather was a bit flat for a few days, but changing the lessons to a time with better waves was no trouble at all. Would definitely recommend for your surfing lessons. Fantastic time!

      Highly recommend for families with young kids learning to surf!
      The highlight of our family holiday!! We had an amazing time learning to surf with Toby, especially our kids aged 4 & 6! Toby was fantastic - he’s a great teacher, was really engaging & a lot of fun. Walking on Waves is really organised. They took photos for us too so we have some great action shots & memories. We already can’t wait to come back and surf next year for “just one more wave”! Thanks guys!

      Patient and encouraging tuition
      We joined in a surf lesson as part of a group of mixed ability couples. Being complete novices we didn’t have huge expectations, however Mollie and Jimmy were so patient and encouraging giving us tips, that we managed to learn the basics of surfing and put into practice in just one lesson. It was exhausting, but huge fun - thanks both, see you again!

      Got my surfing mojo back !
      I’ve been surfing for a couple of years now, not regularly unfortunately as don’t live by the sea. Bought a new board recently and had lost it a bit with my pop up & lost confidence.as a result. Was in Saunton, so had a chat with Jack & asked if a private lesson would be best, but he advised group session as he only had 2 others in it (saving me £60 👍🏻). Within 5-10 mins we’d sorted out my pop up & by the end of the lesson I was carving, surfing down the line & most importantly feel great about my surfing again! Jack also gave me all sorts of other great advice re boards, transporting them etc. Another great experience here 😊

      Brilliant first time paddle boarding!
      We had a brilliant paddle boarding lesson with Jack from Walking on Waves! Although originally planning to surf, the conditions were not suitable and Jack suggested paddle boarding instead. This was really considerate as it was the perfect morning to try paddle boarding for the first time. We were able to hire all the equipment which was really good quality and well fitting. The lesson and kit were very good value for money and Jack was a fun and engaging teacher. He even took his GoPro out with us and waz able to send us some really great photos. Would definitely recommend and am planning to hire again from them when I'm back in a couple of weeks

      Intermediate lesson
      Had a 1:1 with jack today and honestly cannot recommend him, his colleagues and the school enough! I’ve been surfing for about 2 years consistently (weekend warrior) and would probably say I was intermediate on a really good day and just getting frustrated that I wasn’t making any progress so got in touch with jack and by the end of the lesson I’m catching waves I would have never have gone for and going rail to rail and even banging some turns in! Hands down the best coaching I’ve had, super attentive and knowledgeable and just explains and demonstrates things so you can actually understand!

      Recommend!!
      My 10 year son really enjoyed his group lesson with Jimmy and we would have had a second had we been able to fit it in. He was very good with kids. Definitely recommend. Saunton beach is lovely and has good facilities; beach restaurant, cafe, toilets, showers.

    Jack and the team we’re excellent and did a brilliant job.

    Having tried to teach my 12 year old daughter to surf (and failed) I thought she would listen to a professional coach and her (and her friend) ended the session standing up and surfing the whitewater but, more importantly, wanting to surf more - they’re hooked!!

    Great job - would highly recommend.
