  • None of the trip dates or durations suit me. Can I create a custom trip?
    Absolutely yes! We are pretty flexible with when we can operate trips and how long for, especially during the summer months of November - January.

    All our trips are private & all-inclusive. That includes; - Nightly accommodation - Daily breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks - Full time guide - Daily and unlimited transport - Airport transfers (Hokitika airport for 3-5 day trips. Your choice between Hokitika/Christchurch airport for 7-14 day trips) - All surf equipment (excluding wetsuit)
  • What's your cancellation policy?
    The 20% deposit is non-refundable* *Full refund (including deposit) - If we offer you to cancel a trip at short notice due to poor surf conditions. 80% refund - If cancelling outside of 60 days days prior to your trip departure date. 50% refund - If cancelling between 30 - 60 days prior to your trip departure date. No refund - If cancelling within 30 days of your departure date. We will apply discretion to these conditions on a case by case basis. Shorter trips of 3-5 days may have their own more lenient cancellation policy. Please check your trip conditions. Note that if you show up to your surf trip and you have no surf experience at all, we won't be able to take you surfing as we do not provide a coaching service. No refund will be given.
  • How do I book?
    Step one is to contact us to discuss your trip. When you're ready to book, we'll send you a booking form to complete, along with details on how to pay the 20% deposit to secure your booking. Once the deposit has been received, you're all booked in!
  • Can you provide group discounts?
    Yes! We can discount the per person rate if you are booking for 3+ people.
  • Where do your trips depart from?
    Our shorter 3-5 day trips depart from Greymouth, and we can provide transport to/from Hokitika airport. Our longer 7-14 day trips don't have a specific departure location. You can choose to either fly into Hokitika or Christchurch airport and we will provide transportation.
  • Are your trips suitable for solo surfers?
    Yes! You are welcome to book a solo trip. All of our trips are private so the surfer to guide ratio will be 1:1 allowing for us to tailor the trip 100% to you.
  • Are your trips suitable for beginners?
    Absolutely! As long as you have already been taught the basics and you feel comfortable being in the water starting to ride soft & friendly waves, then you can book! All trips are 100% tailored to you and what you feel comfortable with, so we will ensure to search for waves within your ability.
  • Are your trips suitable for children?
    Yes. For under 18 surfers, we just require consent from a parent / guardian for them to book a trip.
  • Who is the guide?
    Callum R-B is our experienced Kiwi guide. He's spent the past 10 years adventuring, learning, guiding, teaching and working in the outdoors here in NZ.
  • I've heard the West Coast has a reputation for heavy scary waves. Is that true?
    Not all the time! It does indeed have that reputation. We can get world-class 4-6ft barrels, or we can get glassy, soft 1-3ft log waves. The best part about the West Coast is the huge variety and the fact there are waves for everyone - you just need to know the spots!
  • When will my trip itinerary be decided?
    We will start to get an idea of the surf forecast for the start of your trip at about 7-10 days prior. We will then spend the next week monitoring the swell systems where each new day gives us more accurate information. 2-3 days prior to your trip, we should have a solid plan of action. For longer 7-14 trips, we'll continue to forecast throughout our time together to make sure we're on track for the best possible itinerary.
  • What if the conditions aren't great for surf?
    On the off-chance that both the West, East & South Coasts aren't looking good for surf, then we will provide other activities such as sea-kayaking or hiking. We can also book you on activities with other providers.
