The Worst-Kept Secret About Things To Do In Adelaide

Australia is globally known for it’s spectacular beaches, including Queensland’s extensive coastline, Sydney’s

beaches located a hop, skip and jump from the city, or Western Australia’s naturally beautiful and unique

beaches.It’s true that these Australian regions are hotspots that are prime for attracting tourists, but we share with you the worst-kept secret about the amazing things to do in

Adelaide – experiencing South Australia’s stunning beaches by learning to surf on the Fleurieu Peninsula.

Fleurieu Peninsula beachesThe Fleurieu Peninsula, within an hour’s drive from

Central Adelaide, is geared up for visitors with wineries, water activities and wildlife.

Surf Groms in a nutshellSurf Groms is a National Development Program started by

Surfing Australia aimed at children aged 5-12 years. Each lesson is 2 hours, so they’re perfect for kid’s

attention spans and burning off energy.The progressive programs vary from 8-12 hours.

Why you should choose Surf & SunAs an Australian company, we grew up at the beach! We place importance on the ability to swim, and teach beach

and water safety. Kids will gain an awareness of the ocean and

environment, and foster an appreciation for a healthy lifestyle.

The beaches in this region showcase sheltered coves, to secluded fishing spots on long rugged stretches of sand,

to swimming and surfing in sandy bays.We break down 7 reasons why Surf & Sun are the best

people to teach you to surf in this region.

Recognised companySurf & Sun aren’t mavericks – they are a licensed surf

school. They don’t just ‘talk the talk’, they live and breathe promoting great activities in Fleurieu

Peninsula and in 2013, they were awarded ‘Best Adventure Tourism’ business in South Australia.

Multiple South Australia locationsThe great thing about travelling is having options to match

your needs. Surf & Sun have recognized this concept, and

consequently they base their activities at multiple locations including Middleton, Moana and (on request)

Goolwa.

Moana is just 40 minutes from Adelaide; Middleton is 1.5 hours from Adelaide and the locations allow you to

discover other attractions on the way to learning how to ‘hang ten’.

Fleurieu Adventures, another local company, can help you discover the attractions in this region as they are experts

at offering ideas. They rent body boards, surfboards, stand up paddleboards, snorkel equipment, bikes – they

can even arrange a wine tour!

Daily lessonsEver travelled halfway across the world to find that

specific museum you really wanted to visit is only open once a week? Or that zip-line over the Amazon rainforest

only ‘zips’ into action three months of the year? It’s a downer on anyone’s itinerary.

Luckily, Surf & Sun offers a solution for travellers with flexible schedules by holding group surf lessons a

minimum of three times a day, every day of the year.Sessions are at 9.30am, 12.30pm and 3pm, and if you pop

by in summer there are two extra sessions at 10.30am and 2pm.

Appropriate gear and learning environmentBeginners often fall into the trap of trying to teach themselves to surf and they buy cheap gear to get

themselves up and riding. It’s possible to learn to surf yourself, but are you certain of how your second-hand

gear has been maintained and more importantly, is it safe to use?

Surf & Sun takes all this hassle out of the equation by providing you with quality equipment including a full Rip Curl wetsuit, rash vest and soft surfboards so you can be

sure you have the right gear.They teach lessons at beaches that are chosen for their suitability for beginners, which saves you ending up on

the 6pm news because you have gone solo and chosen to learn at a notoriously dangerous beach.

Expert instructionAll instructors are accredited surf coaches and many have

represented South Australia in surfing titles.Instructors teach you about the basics that are important to the process of learning to surf – standing up, falling off

safely etc.There is a big emphasis on teaching about surf safety,

which is particularly important in Australia due to varying beach and marine conditions including rip currents.

Customer Service and DiscountsSurf & Sun has little sweeteners for convincing your

friends to come along and learn to surf with you – if you book 4 or more people, you will receive a 10% discount. If

you book 8 or more, you’ll get a 20% discount.

It’s simple to get in touch with them – via their website, phone, email or you can connect with them on Facebook,

Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn.

Give back to the communityAUD$1 from each person that goes through the surf

school is given back to a local community nursery, for the purposes of replanting and revegetation along the

coastline. So, even if your attempts at surfing fail, the environment has still benefited.
