Surf camp is an essential for any backpacker in Australia

There are 2 two hour lessons per day (except 1st and last days) so you lived and breathed surfing, which is what I really loved. The lessons were very thorough and they have a great location to teach surfing. The teachers all loved their job and made it an even more enjoyable experience. They make the meals for you and they certainly don't cut corners, they make plenty of food! The accommodation is basic hostel standards but I guess nothing but that was really promised! Overall up there with one of the best weeks of my life, a definite must if you are serious about learning to surf while in Australia!
