Let's Go Surfing

Bondi Beach & beyond, New South Wales

Overview

Bondi's much-loved surf school, teaching since 1995.

Let's Go Surfing was founded at Bondi in 1995 by surfer Brenda Miley — famously starting out of a Kombi van with a mission to get more women into the water. Three decades on it has grown into one of Sydney's most awarded schools, with a reputation built on patient, encouraging coaching.

Lessons run for all ages and abilities, from a first wobble in the whitewater to refining your turns, and the school is known for strong women's and community programs alongside its everyday group and private sessions.
