Team Building Surf Programs

Not available online. Please call to book.

Surfing is one of the most engaging activities around!

Surfing is an exceptional opportunity to immerse yourself in the present moment and appreciate the ever-changing environment of the ocean. Every wave is unique, which means you need to adapt, read the waves, and respect Mother Nature to successfully ride the wave. You will learn new skills, including basic surfing techniques, paddling onto a wave, standing up, balancing, and gaining knowledge about the ocean's behaviour.

This team-building activity offers a great chance to get to know your colleagues' strengths and weaknesses while enjoying a fun, engaging environment that fosters encouragement and support. You can acknowledge and cheer each other on while experiencing the natural elements of the ocean, including the sun, salt, and sand, which can help reduce stress levels and improve your mood.

If you're looking for your next team bonding-activity, why not try surfing? We provide all the necessary equipment, including rashies and wetsuits. Our lessons take place at Burleigh Heads Beach, but we also have backup locations in Kirra and Surfers Paradise to accommodate various preferences and needs. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced surfer, surfing is an excellent way to challenge yourself, learn new skills, and enjoy the beauty of the ocean.
