What our tribers say…

  • “My experience was so great!! Isabel and the coaches put loads of efforts behind the scenes to coordinate everything and ensure we had everything!"

    Ethan, 2025 (@ahtongthe_1st)

  • "Isabel's such a ball of sunshine that livens up any group she's in and always knows how to make everyone feel included, no matter how new you are. Great at organising and taking charge even when things don't go according to plan, so you're in safe hands! Whether snow or surf, she always has the best connections and recos for lessons, coaches, transport or activities. With Isabel, you can relax and focus on taking your sport to the next level instead of wasting time sweating the small stuff 😆"

    Samrita, 2025 (@_samritada)

  • "Amazing location, near the beach. Professional, patient coaches who gave great feedback, read waves well, punctual and on the ball. Gear and rashguards provided, plus awesome photos and videos to remember it all—felt safe and supported throughout!”
