🧑🎓 Learn to surf at URBNSURF Melbourne – beginners welcome
Dreaming of standing up on a surfboard for the first time? URBNSURF Melbourne makes it easy. The park’s gentle Bays and Waikiki wave settings create soft, rolling waves perfect for learning. Here’s how to make the most of your first session.
🌊 What to expect
- 🟦 Slow, friendly waves: Beginner sessions use the smallest wave settings in the Cove. The whitewater rolls through at a consistent pace, giving you plenty of time to pop up and practise your stance.
- 👨🏫 Professional coaching: URBNSURF’s surf academy offers lessons with qualified instructors who will teach you paddling, pop‑ups, safety and etiquette. Lessons take place on the beginner waves and include equipment hire.
- 🛟 All equipment provided: No board? No worries. The park rents soft‑top boards and wetsuits so you can focus on having fun.
💡 Tips for your first session
- Start with the Bays or Cruiser setting. These waves are forgiving and ideal for finding your balance. Once you’re comfortable, progress to the Cruiser wave for a longer, open‑face ride.
- Arrive early. Give yourself time to check in at the Surf Centre and meet your coach. Being relaxed before your lesson makes a big difference.
- Stay hydrated and apply sunscreen. Even on overcast days, UV can be strong. The lagoon is located in Tullamarine, so conditions can change quickly.
