Fun Things Durban – Learn to Surf at Durban’s Iconic Beaches
Fun Things Durban offers beginner-friendly surfing lessons on some of the city’s most iconic beaches — where warm water, gentle waves, and expert instructors create the perfect recipe for a first-time surf adventure.

Their lessons are all about making surfing fun, approachable, and safe. Whether you’re standing up for the first time or just trying to get more comfortable on a board, their friendly team will guide you through the basics with patience and energy. You’ll learn paddling, board control, pop-up techniques, and ocean awareness — all in a relaxed, small-group setting.

The experience takes place on Durban’s Golden Mile, a stretch famous for its surfable swells and mellow beach vibe. With the warm Indian Ocean beneath you and the skyline behind you, it’s the ideal spot to catch your first wave (or your fiftieth).

Fun Things Durban makes it easy — boards and rash vests are included, and lessons are tailored to your pace. Surfing with them is more than a lesson; it’s a joyful, salt-soaked memory in the making.

Whether you’re a total beginner, a curious traveller, or someone ticking surfing off your bucket list, this is one of Durban’s most rewarding ocean experiences.
