I've been wanting to attend a Yonder surf camp for a couple of years and it was well worth the wait! Sally and Tom are so caring, encouraging, and supportive in and out of the water. Their authenticity and passion for female surf culture shines through in everything that they do. Attending their surf camp has reignited my confidence and motivation in pursuing my surf journey. I'm so glad to be a part of the Yonder family.Bianca, 2023.

This camp is for absolute beginners and those who have surfed before but are wanting to build on their experience in a supportive environment. The teaching is super focussed on each individual in order to ensure progression for everyone.

The camp will be limited to six spaces in order to ensure maximum input for each guest.

Scarborough is a place we hold very dear as it is where we learnt to surf. There are a number of beaches in the area to choose from depending on conditions and it's a great place to start your surfing journey. It's also probably a lot closer by train than you think. We love the East Coast!

The accommodation for the weekend is in a beautifully situated house conveniently located for the surf.

We will take guests to the best break on each day and provide tuition and feedback in order to get everyone feeling confident in the water and flourishing as a surfer. The camp will be a great opportunity to surf with like-minded women in a safe and supportive environment.

No experience is necessary. We will be starting from the beginning with Swell foam boards and progressing at everybody’s own pace. With the small group sizes, tuition is personalised to match everybody’s confidence and ability levels. If you have had lessons before and would like to try one of our Yonder hard boards or one of our soft top Mick Fanning boards for the first time or bring your own along then this camp is also perfect for you.

Lessons will focus on how to paddle for and catch your own waves, how to ‘pop up’ and stand on a surfboard, learning about the ocean and building ocean confidence, surf forecasting and surf safety. If you are already confident in these areas the camps can also help you to start to pop up and go down the line in trim if the waves allow! We have excellent resources to help you in a wide range of areas.

Guests arrive at the camp Wednesday morning ready for their first surf lesson. After the first session and some lunch we will make our way to the house with a second session in the afternoon.

We provide -

  • All meals for the Wednesday and Thursday with breakfast on the Friday. Expect hearty home cooked vegetarian food, nothing fancy, just good and wholesome.

  • All equipment if needed including access to fibreglass boards foamies and soft-tops- you can bring your own of course.

  • Two x two hour surf sessions on the Wednesday & Thursday with a supervised/supported surf session on Friday morning, expect to end the camp around 1pm. There is always the potential for lessons to turn into one bigger surf session if the tides/wind/conditions dictate.

  • Surf forecasting and catching & understanding waves/theory tips on an evening

  • Photo & video feedback sessions - absolutely essential to help build confidence and improve. We are really lucky to have the talented @tombingphoto on board to document the weekend and help give specific feedback about your surfing.

  • Surf Skate coaching by qualified and experienced skateboarder Tom Bing if the weather permits. This is optional as some may not want to join in however it has proven to be a fantastic tool for understanding surf concepts & improving your surfing confidence.

  • Surf Theory, concepts, culture and equipment discussions will take place throughout the camp

  • Surf movies on tap

  • Beautiful photos for you to keep at no extra cost

  • Yonder & Finisterre goodie bag!

All lessons are taught by Finisterre Ambassador Sally McGee, experienced surfer and ASI Accredited surf coach

Prior to all camps we set up a group WhatsApp so that girls can talk and discuss your own travel plans. Girls have often shared lifts to the camp through this and the group remains open after the camp.

You provide:

We provide a complimentary drink n the first evening but guests are welcome to bring their own alcohol and any snacks they will want for the trip.

Transport to the surf: We are unable to provide transport to the surf due to transport capacity. In the past girls have teamed up to do this.

Accommodation: We will be situated close to South Bay in a beautiful apartment with sea views. There are two double bed private rooms and two twin rooms shared options. The price for each differs. Please check when booking.

Yonder is a family run business, expect good vibes, hearty veggie food and a lovely trip with like minded ladies.

Any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch on info@surfyonder.com.

  • Important Disclaimer - Unfortunately, due to the very nature dependent reality of surfing we cannot necessarily guarantee good surf conditions. We always run our camps in areas that are more consistent and during the more consistent swell months in order to increase the potential for good conditions. If the surf is flat we will explore the coastline, run surf paddle sessions (not SUP) and workshops with the option of a sea swim (gentle sea swim!) at Flamborough head!

  • Deposit disclaimer: Deposits paid can not be refunded. It takes a lot of administration to organise the camps, a lot of time and energy with limited availability so if you’re booking it is important to know that the deposit will not be refunded. Once you have paid in full we will only be able to refund the remainder (not the deposit) if we are informed in enough time to secure a replacement, no later that one month before the camp and only if we can get a replacement.
