Not sure what level to book into for your Drop In Surf Lessons? Check out our breakdown of each level below.

Level 1A: Perfect for anyone who has never surfed before or needs a refresh on the basics. We learn about ocean safety, how to paddle, stand up and read the waves, to get you standing up on your board in the whitewash.

Level 1B: Have you had a couple of surf lessons before and feel confident paddling and standing on whitewash waves? If you can stand every 7 out of 10 whitewash waves, this is the level for you. We learn to paddle out the back and how to start catching small unbroken waves.

Level 2: If you can paddle out the back, starting to catch unbroken waves and think what's next? This is the level for you. We learn how to read the surf forecast, surf etiquette, trimming along the face of unbroken waves and some basic maneuvers.

Booking available via the link in our bio.

Still feeling a little unsure which level is suitable for you? Send us a DM with your surfing experience and we can help to steer you in the right direction.

Did you spot us in the Surf Coast Times recently?

We are stoked to let the community know that we have a portable AED (automated external defibrillator) with us on the beaches we're teaching at in case of an emergency. We run our lessons in national parks and many more remote spaces, and we want to make sure that we can help out as much as possible if someone got into trouble.

If an emergency situation occurs and you see our blue Honu Honi Surf Camp flags on the beach, just know you have access to a defibrillator. Come and see us and we'll help however we can.

You can read the full article on the website.

Last Thursday Becks and Iain went into the city to represent Honu Honi Surf Camp at the Victorian Tourism Awards. We were selected as a finalist in the Adventure Tourism category, and while we didn't win, we were so incredibly stoked to walk away with a Highly Commended certificate to indicate that our submission scored over 80%.

We wanted to take a moment to thank all the incredible humans in our Honu Honi community. We love the work we get to do, and you make all our surf camps, lessons, social surfs, and events so much fun!

Thank you so much to each and every single one of you for being here, and for bringing the laughs, hoots, and cheers. Most importantly, thank you for helping us to create such a safe and welcoming space for anyone wanting to learn or practice their surfing as an adult.

We appreciate you so much, and are so honoured to be able to serve this community doing the work we love.

From the whole team at Honu Honi - thank you and we love you! ❤️🌊✌️

Continuing our meet our team series!

Meet Iain! You may not have crossed paths with Iain, as he is more of a behind-the-scenes kind of guy. However, Iain is the back bone of camp! He's the one that keeps everything moving smoothly.

Iain can be found running supplies in and out of camp, setting up tents, helping out in the kitchen with meals, or jumping in the water to teach an occasional surf lesson.

Iain is a master distiller by trade and is very passionate about good food, drink and interesting flavours. He's the kind of guy who can't walk out of the shops without picking up what the most recent unusual snack! His most recent was the coffee flavoured Doritos.

There's no better way to soothe your body post surf, than with a beach yoga session! 🏄‍♂️🧘🏖️

Surfing day in, day out can leave you feeling a little stiff and sore, especially in your shoulders and hips. Yoga is one of the best ways to restore the body and keep you agile so you can continue to progress and have all the fun while out in the waves. That's why we include yoga in our surf camp experiences!

What are your go-to yoga moves?
