Surf Session

Weather you have never stepped foot on a board before or you have done a bit of shredding and want to improve your skills, all of our session are run by highly experienced qualified ISA coaches and your lesson will be tailored to suit your age and ability. Child price is for U16

We surf at West Sands beach which is a beautiful 1mile stretch of safe sandy beach with no rocks or rips, the perfect experience for beginners looking for an introduction to surfing or to build surf confidence in a safe environment. We also have lifeguards during the busy Summer months so lots of extra pairs of eyes to keep you safe.  

At Blown Away, we deliver fun, professional and informative lessons covering all of the basics and safety aspects required to get you standing up and surfing a wave. We run open sessions so all ages can enjoy the experience together as a family, no matter how old you are.

What you will learn

If you are catching the waves for the first time, you are guaranteed to have a swell time learning basic board control, negotiating the surf, paddling and how to adopt the correct positioning to pop up and ride a wave. If you have already surfed, then we will use this session to build on more advanced techniques, including paddling, turning and reading the ocean.

Itinerary

1. Meet us at the Blown Away Shack this is on the West Sands beach, St Andrews. We are the third wooden building on your right as
you drive down the beach road.

2. When you arrive for your session we will get you checked in and size you up in a toasty wetsuit so whatever the weather,
you are guaranteed to be snug and warm.

3. We'll head down to the beach and teach you the
basics on dry land so you are comfortable with the technique for the activity
of the day. 

4. We'll then head into the water to put it all
into practice what we have learnt on dry land.

5. We will be in the water for just over an hour so
visit the bathroom before suiting up, public toilets are available across the
road from the shack. 

What to bring

1. Towel

2. Swimwear for under your wetsuit

3. Sun cream (the sun is always shining in St
Andrews!)

4. Warm clothes that are easy to put on....
leggings are a battle to get on after any water session!

5. A drink, after any exercise, it is important to
stay hydrated.

6. Good Vibes!

 Please take into consideration the weather, all of

our sessions are weather dependant. We take what we get and we don't get upset!
We usually manage to make the most of what the weather gods give us! If it
is too flat and there are no waves, we will usually offer kayaking or Paddle Boarding as an
alternative, please keep an eye on your emails, specifically a couple of
days before your booking, just in case we need to amend your booking.
Thanks for understanding. 

Be assured you will not get 'bored' and you will have 'barrels' of fun with Blown Away!

And remember the best ride of your life is still out there!
