“As a family we’ve never surfed before but we were keen to give it a go. We booked with Bude Surfing experience and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Our boys absolutely loved the surfing and are hooked – from excellent instruction they both were surfing within 30 mins. Thanks guy you’ve helped make great memories”.

“My 9 year old daughter and I spent a fabulous afternoon learning to SUP with Scott on Bude canal. We had such a brilliant time! It was our first experience of SUP – we were standing up in no time at all. Scott was fun and easy to deal with from the initial enquiry, to changing the day because of the weather, the quality kit, to the lesson itself. I would highly recommend”.

“Had my first surfing lesson yesterday, absolutely loved it! Craig and Boady were superb instructors, on hand to give tips and encouragement when it matters and made the experience a lot of fun. I was a little nervous having never tried surfing before but they put me at ease from the minute I arrived. Would highly recommend, and I will be back for sure!

“We had 3 surfing lessons with BSX and would highly recommended. Scott looked after our 7 and 8 year old girls and made sure they had lots of fun—even in the big seas—whilst making great progress in catching waves. At the same time helping two old dog parents learn some new tricks, with patient feedback and supportive advice”.
Amelia Were
“Scott’s friendly character and enthusiasm along with great equipment he gave our group, helped everyone achieve their own personal goals. Thank you Scott from all who took part and myself for an amazing time, 47 children and 8 adults can’t be wrong. We will definitely use BSX again in the future and recommend to other groups and individuals”.
Maxine Webb
“We hired 5 boards from BSX and from the moment we arrived the staff were friendly, warm and kind. The awesome guy with long hair gave us a selection of mixed ability boards and was knowledgeable of what boards he could give us and he also gave us some tips of the waves and what each board is good for. They were also really reasonably priced”.
