Australia is easy... almost anywhere will do. You can surf almost anywhere below the sunshine coast in QLD (above that, there's not much swell, and there are an awful lot of bitey stingy things) right round to WA.
QLD water is nice and warm, NSW is warm, Victoria water is a bit chilly, tasmania water is very chilly. There are surf schools in all the major coastal towns/cities (Note - Brisbane and Melbourne are not directly on the ocean). Sydney is where most travellers start and there are plenty of beaches, surf schools and places to buy/hire kit. Easy.
