Kids School Holiday Surf Camp
Two dedicated tracks at Dee Why Beach: Beginner for first timers building water confidence, and Intermediate for kids ready to level up with film review, surf skate and in water coaching.
Choose a track
Built for where your kid is at right now
Same beach, same crew of coaches, two different focuses, so beginners aren't overwhelmed and intermediates aren't bored catching whitewash.
Learn to Surf
First timers welcome, no experience needed
Water confidence first, surfing second. Kids build comfort in the whitewash, learn to read the ocean and catch their first waves in a fun, low pressure environment, every weekday of the holidays.
Level Up Squad
For kids already catching waves on their own
For kids who've outgrown the whitewash. Coaches work on technique with the same tools the school's own athletes use: on land, on the skate, and reviewed on film, plus time in the water when conditions are right for it.
5-Session Pack
Book five sessions across the holidays and save, valid for Beginner or Intermediate, mix and match either track.

What a day looks like, track by track
