We had three sessions with Stoked surfing and found them fantastic. My partner and I are both intermediate surfers but hadn’t surfed in Cape Town before and really appreciated the advice and tuition provided. Communication and punctuality were awesome and we had an amazing time. Thanks so much Michelle and Henri.
We also did a wine tour which was equally great value and highly recommended

SURFING IN CAPE TOWN FAQs

Do I need surfing experience to surf in Cape Town?

No. Our private surf lessons are suitable for complete beginners through to intermediate surfers. Your coach tailors the session to your ability and experience.

What is included in a private surf experience in Cape Town?

Our private surf experiences include professional coaching or guiding and the surf equipment needed for your session. Depending on the experience booked, transport, photos and additional inclusions may also be provided.

Which beaches do you surf at in Cape Town?

We are mobile, rather than operating from a fixed location, and select the surf location according to your ability and the conditions on the day. We assess the wind, swell and tides, with locations for surf lessons commonly including Muizenberg and Big Bay.

Can non-surfers join your day tours too?

Yes. Our private day tours are designed for couples, families and small private groups, so not everyone needs to surf. They combine surfing with some of Cape Town’s sightseeing, food and wine experiences.

Non-surfers are able to watch the action from beach and then enjoy all the other sightseeing activities with their surfing travel companions.

What is the difference between surf lessons and surf guiding?

Surf lessons include private coaching and are best for beginners and surfers wanting to improve their skills. Surf guiding is for competent surfers who can surf independently and want local knowledge to find the most suitable waves and breaks around Cape Town.
