Just completed 5 x 2 hour lessons over 3 days and had just such a great experience! All the instructors were amazing, super patient and really knowledgeable. I definitely felt I was in safe hands and learnt something new from each of them so thank you Jack, Mike, Andrew, Sam and Finn for getting me up and working on my turning. All the staff at Escape were super friendly, the facilities were great and I really appreciated the hot showers after each session - would definitely recommend!x

Itinerary
This course is perfect for those looking for an intense day of surf coaching. This includes 2 x 2 hours surfing lessons, over the course of 1 day, with a break in between Perfect for beginners looking for an intenses day of surfing, or if you've surfed already, then ideal to improve and build on your current experience and skill. For students on their first lesson we will introduce all of the skills and techniques necessary to surf with control and safety. If you have already surfed, then we will use this session to build on more advanced techniques, including paddling, turning and reading the ocean. For both sessions, we spend approximately 20 minutes on the beach discussing safety, technique, skills etc. then the remaining time is spent in the ocean catching waves, with hands-on coaching from our surf coaches. After 2 hours, you will have a break, then back into the water for the second session. If required, and if availability allows, you are able to split the 2 surf lessons, over 2 days. We always split the groups based on your ability, so if you have already surfed, then you will join an improver or intermediate group.

We have just taken our son for his 3rd lot of surf lessons (2x2 hour sessions), he absolutely loves it! All of the staff are so friendly and remember him every time he goes. We book him in every time we holiday there. Would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to have surf lessons!!
The surfing instructor was amazing, able to help me to stand in the board after few waves. Good facilities and outdoor showers.
We were a group of mixed abilities and Rich was such a patient and fun instructor. Always encouraging and enthusiastic, we all managed to stand up and do some real surfing. This wasn't our first time with the surf school as they have been so great in the past. Thanks Rich for such a great time!
i improved loads this is the best surf school in newquay the most of the coaches are ex professionals and they give helpful advice
My teenage daughter and her friend did 2 half days. Not a huge amount of surf but they had amazing fun. My daughter had had a session at a different surf school previously and had found it frustrating and hard and not managed to stand up. This was so much more rewarding. She learnt much quicker, was a lot more confident and loved it. Would definitely go back. Easy to book and staff friendly. My only slight 'issue' was that on day 2 there seemed to be a number of people in their group who were struggling to stand up, so the girls got little attention and were left to themselves for much of the session, although it didn't spoil their overall enjoyment.
Hands down the best surfing school out there - friendly atmosphere, fantastic teaching and great crowd
Great 2 days. Pigeon and Ruben fan instructors and location excellent. All kit provided and very safe. Was bit cold one day, but warm showers at surf school helped. Highly recommended.
I did the performance weekend course, completely fantastic, so professional, learnt so much, highly individual coaching and feedback, I have lots of things I can now practice on. Skate session was awesome, I felt I really understood what position I need to be in for surfing, it felt like a massive shortcut in the learning curve of that, just to practice doing it now! Immaculate smart comfortable facilities, such an awesome friendly welcoming team and everyone on the course, delicious food, video and photo feedback, just jam packed amazing weekend of learning, lively people, amazing waves, so much surf knowledge shared with us, can’t rate Escape Surf School high enough, thank you all so much, what you do is fantastic! Looking forward to more lessons! Cheers, Amanda Taffinder
As always incredible coaching with the best people at the best surf school in newquay Feels like you at home when you surf with these guys
Brilliant session with fantastic coaching from Mike and Pigeon. Really inclusive and informative session!
Honestly, we couldn't of asked for a better surf school and definitely the best in Newquay . We have been back multiple times - Reuben, Mike, lyndsey, sim, Glenn, Henry are all amazing and we will be coming back for years to come! Shaun and Emma
Our 2 teenage sons 14 and 15 absolutely loved their surf lessons with Escape. They had never surfed before and by the end of the first lesson were getting up and standing on the boards. The instructors were very professional and friendly..We will be back for more lessons when we return to Newquay.
Had such a blast with escape. The instructors were awesome and really encouraging which made my group enjoy it even more. Will definitely be back out of season when its a little quieter and really master those waves. The location was great too and the changing facilities were nice.
Simply the best. !!! Been having lessons 5/6 times but went with escape was fortunate enough to get 2 hours with mike young. Learned more in 2 hours then in the 14 hours at other surf schools. Escape surf school is 2nd to non. Can’t wait to book again. !!! Special thanks to the whole team. Thank you. Steve Mac.
I did a weekend surf with the guys at escape. Super close to the beach, great equipment and nice hot showers to warm up after the surf. We had video analysis and information booklets about techniques for improving. We were giving fitness programs to suit our level and a number of really useful work out routines to improve our surfing. I have been putting into practice what I learned and will be back for another session in the near future. Thanks guys.
Headed down for a couple hours lesson on a Thursday and Friday And couldn't be happier with the lessons we got. We had Henry as an instructor both days and he not only taught us how to begin catching waves, but picked up on small ways we could make surfing easier for ourselves with our techniques. A free can of monster at the end and generally great experience. Would 100% recommend!!!
