About Surf Wala

Surf Wala is a group of international surfers who came together to promote surfing in Goa by opening the first surf school in Goa in 2011. Since then we've been working to teach and train those who want to learn to surf, as well as providing surfboards, equipment, private rooms, a cafe/bar and support to the local surfing community.

Our Surf Lessons

You have loads of options for learning to surf with us.

Our international team of instructors run two surf lesson batches every morning with group lessons of no more than 4 students per instructor.

Surfboards at Surf Wala

We also offer private lessons for an exclusive one on one experience, which is also the best option for non swimmers.

You can book a single lesson just to get a taste of the surfing experience or join a course to really learn how to begin surfing on your own.

Surfing for kids? We’ve got you covered there too with specialized lessons just for young people between the ages of five and fifteen.
