ALL FEMALE SESSIONS!
INTRODUCTORY BEGINNER - ADVANCED BEGINNER - ADVANCED BEGINNER PLUS - INTERMEDIATE
At Girls on Board we strongly believe that surfing is more than a sport, it's a lifestyle. Our women’s sessions give you the opportunity to surf throughout the year in a safe, friendly and non judgemental environment with like-minded women who have a similar level of surfing experience. We offer four different level groups - introductory beginner, advanced beginner, advanced beginner plus and intermediate. With the option of coming to one session or as many as you choose this gives you flexibility. Keeping in mind that you may not be surfing with the same group of women each time!
Founder Jess Laing has grown up on Phillip Island and has been surfing here for over 27 years. She has great knowledge of all local beaches and a great understanding and appreciation of being a woman in the waves! All of our expert Surfing Australia Certified female coaches have loads of ocean and surf experience and are passionate about sharing their knowledge and love of the waves with you!
