Already know your way around a board? Let’s get you back out there. Perfect for surfers with some experience who want the freedom to enjoy the waves at Cross Beach at their own pace.
The Experience
Our surf rental is ideal for those who have surfed before and feel confident handling themselves in the water. After signing in, we’ll get you fitted with a wetsuit and matched with the right board for the conditions.
Before you head out, we’ll give you guidance on the safest areas to surf on the beach and any important conditions to be aware of that day. From there, you’re free to paddle out and make the most of your session.
The rental time is 1.5 hours in the water, but allow around 2 hours in total to include getting suited up and changed afterwards.
