We had a good response to the idea of some surf sessions on the Peninsula so we are scheduling the following days to be run at Gunnamatta:
Sessions will start at 8:30 and go until 10:00. The focus at these sessions will be surf skills. If the waves look too hairy at Gunna, we’ll find another beach. Should be fun.
