Surf Swim tips...
* What will you learn? We will firstly try to make you comfortable in the surf!
Once you have established that you won’t drown or a shark probably won’t eat you, we will work on surf skills! This includes at any given session - getting in/ out through the surf, diving under waves, learning to catch waves & how to effectively navigate once out the back!
Experienced surf swimmers - we have many of Australia's top ocean swimmers, so be prepared to be pushed!
* What to bring: Minimum of swimmers, swim cap & goggles.
* Wetsuits: if you have one - feel free to wear it! Wetsuits act as a valuable safety device as they float you – they take 1 of 2 swims to get you used to as they are generally a tight fit around the neck. Available - www.fastgear or http://www.aquashop.com.au/ or www.wing.com.au (Wing wetsuits offer wetsuit hire).
* Overseas online site (you will need to know your size) - http://www.wetsuitoutlet.com/
* Rain – Surf – Shine: we will be there no matter what & we do not offer refunds for missed lessons!
* Valuables: DO NOT bring valuables to the beach – we normally leave gear next to the lifesaver tent.
* Parking tips: 2 hour FREE parking in the streets opp surf club & off the road heading towards Dover Heights!
Metered parking along Campbell parade of paid parking in the Council Car Park facing the beach.
Be aware of Bondi parking issued & leave plenty of time.
We DO NOT allow late arrivals, so be ready to go at least 10 minutes before advertised start time!
