📍 Get Wet Surf School, Seaworld Drive, Main Beach QLD, Australia

1. What is provided: All equipment is included.
2. What do I need to bring: On the beach you will only be needing swimmers and a big desire to surf and have fun. We will provide you with a wetsuit, rash shirt, sunscreen and of course … a surfboard. It is a good idea though to wear thongs ( flip flops) to walk on the sand and a towel for after the lesson. We do have secure onsite storage for your belongings.
3. How to get there:  Complimentary transport from Surfers Paradise to the best beach on the Gold Coast (we allow one parent to come in the shuttle but other seats must be reserved for other surfers)
