Overview
The "Tourer" Offers the best of the Great Ocean Road sights and personal in-depth learn to surf lessons along Australia's Breathtaking Coastline.
Start your surf tour adventure by getting picked up from Melbourne near Southern Cross Station at the crack (nice and early). Before hitting the beach, take a ride to the Torquay surf shop where you grab a stick and suit (surfboard and wetsuit).
A fully qualified wave guru (surf instructor) runs you safely through an easy to follow Surf lesson so you don't get drilled (pummelled by a wave after falling off) in surf camp. In your surf lessons, you'll also learn not to do a drop in on a fellow grommet (new surfer). Once you know how to bail out (leap courageously from your board to avoid nasty spills) you receive detailed progressive instruction each day in surf camp.
Hit the gnarly (really quite good) Surf City surf shops after your days in the surf before taking a trip down the road (a mere 260km drive down the Great Ocean Road) for a day before heading back to Melbourne.
