GIRLS ON BOARD SURF SCHOOL

Phillip Island

Welcome to Girls on Board

Girls on Board isn’t your average surf school, it’s so much more than that!

Maybe you’re joining us to learn to surf, improve your skills, make new friends, build fitness, keep your mind healthy, or just have a good time. Whatever your reason, our aim is to provide a welcoming, safe, inclusive, and personalised experience for people of all ages.

All of our sessions are run by expert Surfing Australia Accredited coaches with extensive experience in surfing and navigating the waves.

Some sessions are female-specific run by female coaches, while others are open to all genders and may use a mix of female & male coaches.

We can’t wait to welcome you with open arms and a big, salty smile.

“I have had a few surf lessons at different places but I can honestly say Girls on Board was the best one I have ever had! It was so much fun and it was great to have a smaller size group as it meant we got more tips and tricks. Was so comprehensive and so fantastic in every way I cannot recommend having your lesson here enough! I also think it is amazing the way they are creating a community of women as it is much less intimidating learning with a group of women ☺️”
