17/03/2017
Whether you are looking to start surfing or are already a capable surfer who is looking to explore a brand new part of the UK to test out your skills, why not consider Scarborough?
For many surfers, the sport is often considered to be so much more than that and even becomes a lifestyle that lends its influence into other areas of surfer’s lives. Surfing is so accessible to people in the fact that there are no winning or losing teams and you do essentially rely on yourself when it comes to performing on the water. The sport also offers up a fantastic opportunity to escape the hum-drum of everyday life and be part of something bigger than yourself in the ocean and remove yourself from worries and anxieties that you may otherwise experience on land!
1. There are lots of Surf Schools
Making the most of surfing in Scarborough is easy when the area offers some fantastic surf schools to help you perfect your technique and learn some new tricks. The surf schools in Scarborough offer Coasteering and Paddle Boarding too, which means you can try your hand at something new alongside surfing! They also allow you to hire all the relevant equipment (boards, wetsuits etc.) so you can leave your surfboard at home and travel light! If you would prefer to bring your own wetsuits for the occasion, then why not find your ideal one at the Wetsuit Centre? They offer an extensive range of wetsuits that are perfect for both the summer and winter seasons so that you can ride the waves at any time of the year!
2. You can Plan an Event
If you are looking for a place in the UK to host an event- for example a group or work trip in the summer – then Scarborough will be able to cater to your needs through surfing. Many of the surf schools in the area are able to cater to larger party sizes and provide event packages that are sure to add a special touch to accompany your other planned activities.
3. Great Beaches
In Scarborough you will find that the area is separated into two bays- the north and the south. Each gives you the chance to try your hand at different waves and allows you to mix and match your surfing experienced based on your preferences.
4. Everyone is Welcome

5. There is lots to do in the Area
