After School Lessons (Full Term)

Set against the sun-dappled shores of Flynns Beach in Port Macquarie, New South Wales, Soul Surfing delivers an immersive after-school experience designed specifically for young adventurers aged 5 and up. Their standout full-term program runs over nine weeks, offering a 1.5-hour surf session weekly. This isn’t just another kids’ program — it’s a gateway for children to engage directly with the ocean’s rhythm while developing balance, strength, and confidence in the water.

Port Macquarie’s coastline, where Soul Surfing operates, is framed by gently rolling sand dunes and the warm, accessible waves of the Tasman Sea. The beach’s unique mix of mellow breaks and clear blue water creates a perfect learning environment for novice surfers. Alongside diverse marine life and coastal birds, this setting provides a natural classroom for kids to connect viscerally to the outdoors.

More than just surf lessons, the program’s thoughtful logistics stand out — weekly school pick-up ensures a seamless transition from classroom to coastline, while afternoon tea re-energizes participants post-session. Soul Surfing provides all essential gear including surfboards, wetsuits, rash shirts, and sunscreen, so parents can rest assured kids are fully equipped without extra hassle. What elevates Soul Surfing in the local adventure community is their focus on cultivating a positive, safe atmosphere that balances skill-building with fun and camaraderie.

Surfing here is less about competition and more about connection: to nature, to peers, and to oneself. For families in the Port Macquarie area looking to introduce kids to ocean adventures, Soul Surfing’s after-school lessons offer a genuinely fresh way to inspire lifelong appreciation for active outdoor living.
