Iona has grown up on the North Coast and can't wait to share her favourite place in the world with you. Finn grew up on a wee island called Tiree.

Our locations
We operate in the Scottish highlands along the North Coast. Thurso which is the main town is known as the cold water surfing mecca of the world!! We're mainly based at Dunnet beach. This is a long sandy bays that picks up all the north sea swells and is the perfect place to learn or improve how to surf with the long mellow waves this beach can offer. We can also arrange surf lessons at Strathy, Farr and Durness on demand.
The North Coast Vibe
If your considering visiting the North coast to surf (or not to surf) then have a look at this video (Unsung Corners: A Scottish Odyssey). We love it because it not only portrays the amazing waves and beautiful landscapes but the vibe of the Highlands too! Give us a shout and we will help immerse you in this wild wonderful coast!!
"This was by far the highlight of our NC500 trip! Anyone worried about the cold, don't give it a second thought. The wetsuits were great and we didn't stop laughing the whole time. Finn was really helpful and easy going, we'll definitely be back"
