Thailand is the perfect holiday spot, with glorious beaches, gentle waves and beautiful, tropical weather, so if you’re looking to learn to surf, there’s no better place to go. Combining learning to surf with your break is an excellent idea as it makes life easy. Having everything all under one roof means you’ll have nothing else to worry about. A surf camp holiday is an ideal solution, especially if the whole family wants to learn!

One of the best spots in Thailand to learn is the Bangtao, Surin area of Phuket. Bangtao is protected by a sandbank so has perfect waves on which to learn to surf and Surin beach offers a better place for the more experienced surfer, so this area has the best of both worlds. Another good spot is Rayong, just south of Bangkok. Mae Ram Phueng has perfect medium-sized waves for those honing their skills and Khao Laem Ya National Park has smaller waves for the absolute beginner.

Surfing in Thailand – a surf trip you will not forget.

One of the best surf camps in Thailand is the Talay Surf School In Phuket. Not only do they offer luxury stays for adults and families, but they also have teen day camps where they’ll go from complete novice to popping up in no time. Parents can drop their children off each day and maybe spend some time at the Lazy Coconut or the Catch Beach Club. While at the surf club, not only will the children learn to surf, they’ll learn everything from ocean awareness to surf rescue, first aid and CPR to problem-solving, leadership and teamwork skills. But most of all they’ll have fun, make some friends, and they’ll earn a certificate at the end of it.
