Superb Value for Money
We pride ourselves in offering a more refined surfing experience. Having a Surf Centre means we can offer you some home comforts as well as the professional surf coaching you would expect from over 26 years experience. There is no changing in public toilets or a cold car park and you will appreciate the difference a hot shower and a cup of tea can make after 2 hours in the Atlantic. It will even set you up to do it all again in the afternoon!
Location OA Surf School is situated on the unspoilt, rugged north Cornwall coast. It is easy to get to and only 1hour from the M5 junction at Exeter. The Centre’s setting is incredible. On arrival you will immediately find yourself surrounded by a magnificent, naturally wild, coastal environment. We overlook the Atlantic and have 10 acres of beautiful Centre grounds have been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest by English Nature and a European area of conservation. Look out across the ocean and feel alive!
The Surf Centre has the best of both worlds – although in a remote location, Bude is only 4 miles away and there are many attractions in the local area. There is a great choice of clean lifeguard-patrolled Blue Flag beaches and the North Cornwall coast path runs behind the Centre. A pub and club is within a short walking distance and the Eden Project just 40 minutes away.
