LESSONS

Xuan

My kids and I recently had the pleasure of attending Port Stephens Surf School, and I must say it was an incredible experience! The instructor was not only a skilled surfer but also patient and encouraging. He created a friendly and supportive atmosphere that made learning to surf very enjoyable. I highly recommend giving them a try. Catch some waves, enjoy the sun, and embrace the thrill of surfing!

Anouk

We had two surf lessons here and it really was amazing! We were 4 girls from Switzerland, had some lessons before but this was by far the best surf lesson experience we all had. The first day we booked the group lesson and the second day we booked a private lesson with Luke, which was amazing and totally worth it!! Before going into the water we went through a lot of safety instructions which made me feel very safe, we all managed to stand up and felt like little surf stars :)

Pinnacle team events

We booked PSS for our Christmas work party & had a wonderful time. Alyssa was super helpful, friendly and organised. The instructors on the day were very considerate and supportive - with all of us being beginners we felt safe & looked after. We all stood up & had a great time all-round. Thanks for having us!

Shane

Would recommend to anyone who wants to learn or just have fun, me and my wife had no prior experience surfing and they had us standing up and riding waves in no time! Instructors were cool, they gave very clear and easy to understand instructions prior to getting in the water, and then whilst we were in they were very attentive to everyone and gave a lot of tips and support to improve.
