OCEAN COURSES

Sometimes we just want to learn right from the beginning… The ocean is an ever changing place where mother nature rules supreme! She gives us clues as to her patterns and her ways and if we pay attention and are open to explore her oceanic movements, we can be rewarded in salty play and exhilaration!

Our Ocean Courses take a step by step journey to learning the movements of the surf zone and how best to work the ebs and flows of open water as well as paying attention to the constant effects of these water movements whilst swimming.

In other words, we learn what exactly is a rip and when is a rip our best friend; where and why sand banks get us back to shore the fastest and funnest way; but also herein lies the best fun and addiction when we learn to catch the energy of waves and join the body surfing tradition of all who love the surf!

Whilst we may be good learners, we must always respect that no one is more powerful than the salt gods themselves, therefore a minimum of 1km continuous freestyle or more is required.

If you’re a budding oceanswimmer, new to swimming in openwater or simply want to become more confident in the surf this 4 week course will take you through theory and practice of Oceanswimming or Surf Swimming ready for your next openwater race, or just become confident in taking your next plunge in the surf zone with more certainty.
