What visitors say
I didn't even know Whitby had a break, so I was happy to spend a day in the water! Great little surf shack hiring out all you need for a day in the waves. Mostly soft boards available but there are one or two hard boards. I was given a warmer wetsuit at request and the friendly staff member (Leah) let me take some boots too for extra warmth. I appreciated being offered back the difference on my rental charge as I paid for the full day but was out of the water after only half the day. That's great service. Cheers!

Cracking. Rented a foamy board for a couple of hours surfing, reasonably priced. Great regular waves on the smaller size, fab for beginners as you don't get completely wiped out. Staff member there was super helpful and chatty. Would certainly come again. 🙌

Great lesson and excellant staff. The bondi beach of the Yorkshire coast, surfs up dude! 🏄♂️

Sadly surf lesson cancelled because the weather was too nice (amazing!) but Leah went out of her way to help find alternatives for us. They also gave us plenty of notice re cancellation. We visit Whitby several times a year and I cannot recommend this place enough. What I would say is that if a lesson is cancelled do try and keep the money in their business through another lesson, or a body board hire or merchandise etc as they truly are at the mercy of the weather!
