The Surf School operated by Godfathers Of The Ocean, is like no other. Nothing is left to chance. You are mentored by Michael ‘Munga’ Barry, Head Surfing Coach and former World Professional Surfer. His 30 years of professional surfing is without parallel.

 

My three kids had the opportunity to learn the art of surfing on our recent trip to Burleigh Heads. Munga Barry was fabulous with the kids. He had them standing and riding the waves in no time. The kids had some extra company out in the water too!! Steve Fagan
