Highly recommend! - I originally purchased a morning session at Maroubra Beach however it was canceled due to dangerous conditions. They were able to reschedule me immediately to an afternoon session at Bondi Beach that same day. I was in a small group (5) with Harper. I was a bit scared because I can barely swim. But Harper was super nice and encouraging. He was a great teacher too. Because we were all beginners, he kept us in shallow water so our feet were always touching the floor. He set up the ride and we were all able to stand and ride waves all the way to the shore. He gave constructive feedback that led to improvement after each run. If you are an absolute beginner like me, I highly recommend a session with Harper. I wish there were photos but we left all our belongings in their shop after changing into wetsuits. There was nowhere to store our phones on the beach while we were out in the water.

The perfect experience for beginners - It was a great experience and it was a lot of fun! The instructors explain the basics in the beginning and we also tried out some practical skills on the beach before catching the waves ! Everything was very well organized

The first surf in my life. - They told me kindly to surf for the first time. I was the only Japanese, but it was fun to communicate with others.

Excellent surf lesson with friendly instuctor - I had a day spare in Sydney so decided to have a go at surfing. I didn't regret it. Great fun and a knowledgable patient instructor (Jackson). Next time I'm in Sydney I'll definitely be heading back for another lesson and highly recommend Let's go Surf to anyone thinking of taking up the sport.

Good guides, but we struggled to catch a wave - We signed up for a 2-hour surfing lesson in Maroubra. The guides were good and quite communicative - James and Diego. However, me (and most of the other group) struggled to catch a wave. The sea was ferocious and the tide strong. Not sure if it was just a bad time, or this place in general is rough, but was overall a sub-optimal experience.

Cancelled - It got cancelled - rescheduled for next week. Reschedule process was easy - with a phone call. But no email or txt follow up to confirm new time

Private Lesson - More interest in chatting with others in the surf than the lesson. Not in the least enthusiastic about teaching rather bothered by it all.
