Overview

Grab a taste for bodyboarding in Cornwall and catch crystal-clear waves on Newquay’s scenic coastline. Our Taster Bodyboard Lessons are ideal for complete newbies or for improvers looking to up-skill their existing knowledge.

These lessons have been designed to improve your riding - whatever your age, level or ability. A small group ensures plenty of useful tips and close-quarters tuition for faster progression.

Our coaching team of fully insured and experienced instructors tailor tuition to your individual ability. Having been in-house trained by former European Number 1 and British Team Bodyboarding Coach Rob Barber, you really couldn’t be in safer hands when bodyboarding in Cornwall.

Itinerary

Bodyboards are smaller and lighter than surfboards; this means they’re generally easier to manoeuvre and quicker to learn on. These smaller boards, combined with a lower centre of gravity, make bodyboarding much less tiring than surfing. It’s also widely considered a much safer sport as the boards are made from foam and they avoid the sharp edges and fins synonymous with surfing.

Due to the nature of bodyboarding, your lowered centre of gravity increases the feeling of speed. This means that catching even the slowest of waves will make you feel like you’re whizzing past the rest of your group in a magnificent blur!

If you’re a complete beginner, we guarantee you’ll be catching your first white-water wave within the first 10 minutes of the lesson! We’ll teach you how to paddle out, trim correctly and how to select the right kind of waves for your ability.

Bodyboarding is addictive to learn due to early goals being quickly attained. The initial learning curve of bodyboarding skyrockets exponentially with solid practice and time in the water. Our expert instructors will quickly progress you from broken white-water waves, to green, unbroken) waves for an unforgettable experience.

    Our instructor Layla was excellent. She made our experience informative and fun. Her patience, encouragement and natural cheerfulness helped when we were wavy. And her love for the sea and sport infectious. We would definitely do it again. Massive thank you Layla.

    We booked a family bodyboarding session, and we’ve since looked at booking from snorkelling and coasteering. Super-friendly staff, knowledgeable instructor, great family activity.

    We had Amy as our instructor and she was awesome. She took us to Fistral Beach and the conditions were great. Definitely wear a wet suit unless it’s really hot. We had plenty of time to enjoy the surf. Bodyboarding is great fun and if you haven’t tried it, you should use Newquay Activities Centre to have some fun. Thanks Amy!!!

    James took us out today and all of us had a fantastic day learning to bodyboard (family lesson) Loved it so much with Jame’s excellent tuition that we are returning tomorrow to hire everything we need to go out in the forecasted bad weather and big waves. James was also very good with the kids and especially our daughter who was very interested in all that james was able to tell her about the jelly fish she found. Can’t wait to go out again thanks to our excellent family session with James.
