Surfing.. South of England

[RoxyChick]

Hey.

I was wondering on what you thought were the best places to learn surf in the South of England. My friend and I are planning a trip to Newquay in the summer, but were wondering if we could have lessons nearer to us before we head down their. We live in Portsmouth, so were thinking maybe Bournemouth? anyone know of any good lessons down there?

Thanks! x

i learnt with andy joyce and hes a good teacher, i dont think sorted do any lessons any more, but i know andy still teaches, but to be onist bornemouth isnt consistent enough for lessons, you might aswell go over to newquay, much better waves

If you go to Newquay, i would recommend the surf shop next door to the Esplande Hotel, its right by Fistral and Andy ( my instructor ) was fantastic !!
