Had the best first-time surfing experience with Cal! Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor for the first surfing lesson in GC, got so many good practical tips and managed to catch some waves at the end of the lesson.🏄🏼‍♀️🌊 Thanks for giving a heads up on the best surfing spots in GC, we’re gonna be back soooon! 🔥

I booked 3 surf lessons for my son Noah at Broadbeach. He had the best time all thanks to coach Kal and Damien. They both made it great fun and the 2hours flew by! A massive thank you to Kal and Damien. Noah will be back for more lessons next time we are visiting the grandparents on the Gold Coast!

Highly recommend! Took me and my 3 teenage daughters done a 2hr learn to surf lesson with Damien. Was only 4 of us in the lesson, had no experience and we all managed to stand up on the surf board by the end of the lesson.

It was fun! Really appreciate the time spent on this lesson. Everything was easy to understand and repeat.

I had a lot of fun during your two-hour beginner surf lesson! Damian's engaging and knowledgeable approach, along with the exceptional guidance from both coaches despite the larger group, made it an enjoyable and informative session for everyone. I felt safe at all times and was able to pop up a couple of times. Overall, it was a great learning and fun-filled experience.

My mom and I had two hours experience with instructor Maui. Maui was knowledgeable and encouraging person, he continually helped me with my skills and kept my mom safe in the water. This was my first surfing lesson, and I was able to stand up on the board at the end. Best experience in Gold Coast! Highly recommended 100%!

My Sons, husband and I had a fantastic morning with the Surf Team learning to surf as part of my 55th birthday celebration ... The lessons were clear, fun, informative and we had a ball and would highly reccommend them to anyone for a great family outing.

Our instructors were informative fun and cared about us. They ensured everyone in our group were afforded the attention they needed. This is the second time in 4 months I have used gorideawave and both times have been excellent.

Damien was friendly and knowledgeable. Kept everyone safe and helped my wife get her first wave. Would recommend to all beginners.

Absolutely phenomenal experience! My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our surfing lesson. Remarkably, she was able to stand up on the board not once, but twice! Damien, our instructor, was not only affable but also impressively well-versed in the art of surfing. He provided clear and precise instructions that made the entire process feel intuitive. To top it all off, the weather was absolutely perfect! Enhancing our time on the waves. Highly recommended!

It's amazing tour with the kindly, friendly, sophisticated instructor. I would definitely participate the lesson again.

It was so easy to book this activity through their website. Theo our instructor was an absolute delight. Relaxed informative encouraging and very patient. Gave me some tips to really help improve my experience. Highly recommend

We had a great time. We would recommend this to anyone who's traveling on the Gold Coast. The instructors Denis and Taj were fantastic !

I had so much fun as a first timer. Dennis our instructor was very patient. I would do another one if we have time.

It was a pleasure to participate in surf lesson in Go ride a wave! Our instructor, Dennis was really focused on teaching us all basics we needed to catch waves and stand up! So we did! All in our group (6 of us) managed that! Thank U Dennis - Monika&Krzysztof :)

We had our lesson with Damian and had a super time learning to catch a wave! He was clear in his instructions and helped us all to get comfortable with water. Had a great time and one of the best experiences in Gold Coast. 100% recommended

This course turned out to be a disappointment. There were 2 coaches for 14 participants, so we expected to be 1 on 7 coaching, which should be quite ok. However, the coaches had put rather much of their attention on only the younger participants. One of the coaches had basically been 1on1 most of the time with one of the kids. It is proper to take care of the younger ones, however, the proportion of time spent on the other students turned out to be really little, which was rather unfair. Apart from 2 rounds of group coaching, my partner and myself had been mostly surfing on our own, especially my partner had received less than a minute of coaching throughout the session. We definitely expected more coaching from this class given its much higher price than renting a board (and watching some standardized instruction videos on YouTube,  which was essentially the experience we had). It would be fairer if the coaches could have spent about equal time on each participant. It might also be better to separate the adult's and kid's classes. We emailed the company for this feedback but never got a response unfortunately.

Dennis was an amazing instructor, he explained everything perfectly and also made sure we all knew about safety and precautions. He spread himself out to give each and everyone of us some personalized training and as a result all of us were able to catch our wave!

The surf lesson was one of the best things about our holiday, great as a family activity and our instructor Jason had us all standing on our boards by the end of our first lesson. Jason really looked after our 10yo daughter too who was a bit unsure, but she enjoyed herself thanks to Jason!

My 3 teenagers had an awesome morning learning how to surf at Broadbeach. The session was fun, engaging and very practical. The instructors, Damo and Taj were excellent in giving my children the confidence to learn to surf. I would highly recommend.
