Learn to Surf

If you're looking to try surfing while you're in Lagos, we can help set it up for you. We work with a few well-known local surf schools who run lessons every day, all year round. Whether it's your first time or you've done it before, there's something for every level.

We'll match you with the right group or private session, and the schools choose the beach based on the day's conditions, so you get the best out of it. You can book online through us or just swing by the shop. It's one of the most fun things to do around here, and a great way to experience the coast from a different perspective.

Student Reviews

"Had a great first surf lesson with them - amazing experience. We went to the beach with amazing landscaping and had strong waves there (which wasn’t that nice for the beginners, but it didn’t ruin the atmosphere). Also they brought some snacks and a lunch which I was not expecting so was truly grateful for everything."
